Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the review petition due to a delay of 394 days that was not satisfactorily explained, emphasizing that the petitioner had access to legal advice after the special leave petition was dismissed on merits on 5th April 1999. The Court found no patent error in the previous orders, as all lower courts had concurrently held that the Will was not legally proved, and the High Court's refusal to interfere was justified under Section 100 of the CPC, 1908. Consequently, the review petition was dismissed on both grounds of delay and lack of merit.
