Birendera Kumar Dubey And Anr vs Girja Nandan Dubey And Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in disposing of the Second Appeal without framing a substantial question of law as required under Sections 100 and 101 of the C.P.C. The Court emphasized that the High Court can only entertain a Second Appeal when a substantial question of law arises from the judgment of the first Appellate Court. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remanded the case for fresh disposal, allowing the appeal without costs.
