Mehar Singh(Dead)By Lrs. & Ors vs Sawan Singh (D) By Lrs. & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's decision to allow Regular Second Appeal No. 1053 of 1981 without framing a substantial question of law contravened Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court emphasized that a substantial question of law must be identified before proceeding with a second appeal. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remitted the case for reconsideration, ensuring that the High Court frames any substantial questions of law before deciding the appeal.
