KASHMIR SINGH vs HARNAM SINGH

The Supreme Court held that under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, a High Court must formulate a substantial question of law before allowing a second appeal. The Court found that the Punjab and Haryana High Court failed to do so, rendering its judgment unsustainable. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's decision, emphasizing that the jurisdiction to entertain a second appeal is confined to cases involving substantial questions of law.
