Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Andhra Pradesh High Court erred in not framing a substantial question of law as required under Section 100 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) before entertaining the second appeal. The Court emphasized that the High Court must specifically frame such questions at the time of admission and decide them during the hearing. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and directed it to frame the necessary substantial questions of law and dispose of the appeal within three months.
