Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's second appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, affirming that the plaintiff's claim of ownership by adverse possession was not substantiated. The Court emphasized that the plaintiff's contradictory claims regarding ownership and possession undermined his case, and the absence of necessary parties rendered the suit untenable. The ruling clarified the importance of maintaining consistency in claims and the necessity of including all relevant parties in property disputes.
