Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of a trial court's decree regarding the defendants' construction affecting the plaintiffs' right to light and air. The Court held that the defendants had no right to obstruct the plaintiffs' enjoyment of these rights as per the contractual agreement established in the 1921 sale deed. The Court affirmed the findings of the lower courts regarding the unauthorized construction by the defendants and clarified that only the recent constructions would be subject to demolition, thus disposing of the appeal without costs.
