Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the transfer of a civil case under Section 24 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, where the Rajasthan High Court ordered the transfer of a suit from the Additional District Judge, Alwar to the District Judge, Jaipur City. The Court held that the High Court's decision was justified considering the serious allegations against the appellant and the potential for bias, despite the appellant's claims of entitlement and previous transfer petition outcomes. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order of transfer.
