Jarnail Singh (D) Tr.Lrs vs Dhanna Singh & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's decision to allow a second appeal under Section 100 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908, without formulating a substantial question of law was erroneous. The Court emphasized that it is mandatory for the High Court to frame such a question before disposing of the appeal. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the impugned judgment and remitted the matter back to the High Court for a fresh decision in accordance with law.
