Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the findings of the Subordinate Judge-V, Bhagalpur, stating that the compromise petition signed by Pushpa Biswas and Apurva Kumar Biswas impliedly revoked the power of attorney granted to Dr. Sanjeev Kumar Mishra under Section 207 of the Indian Contract Act. The Court emphasized that the High Court erred in interfering with the findings of fact regarding the authenticity of signatures, which were determined to be valid. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, affirming the lower court's decision and dismissing the revision petition.
