Mohinder Singh vs Jai Kaur & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the Punjab & Haryana High Court erred in allowing the Second Appeal without framing any substantial question of law as mandated by Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure (C.P.C.). The Court emphasized that the requirement to frame substantial questions is essential for the proper adjudication of appeals under Section 100 C.P.C. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remitted the matter for a fresh decision after compliance with the statutory requirement.
