Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court found that the Karnataka High Court, in R.F.A. No.144/2004, set aside the Trial Court's order without providing adequate reasoning or discussing the evidence, which is a violation of procedural fairness. The Court held that such a lack of reasoning necessitates the reversal of the High Court's judgment, remitting the matter for fresh consideration. The appeal was disposed of with a request for expedited handling by the High Court, with no order as to costs.
