Chadat Singh vs Bahadur Ram And Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in disposing of a Second Appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 without formulating a substantial question of law, as mandated by the statute. The Court emphasized that the High Court must formulate such questions before hearing the appeal, referencing Ishwar Dass Jain v. Sohan Lal and Roop Singh v. Ram Singh to support this principle. Consequently, the Court restored the trial Court's decree and reversed the High Court's judgment.
