Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in interfering with the Second Appeal under Section 100 of the CPC, 1908, as one of the appellants was not served properly. The Court emphasized the necessity of proper service and the limited jurisdiction of the High Court in such appeals. The impugned order was set aside, and the matter was remanded to the High Court for re-decision after hearing all parties, with a directive to expedite the proceedings.
