Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the maintainability of Review Petition (C) No. D-5/2008 following the withdrawal of SLP (C) No. 10939 of 2008, holding that the dismissal of the SLP does not preclude the filing of a review petition. The Court emphasized that a decree modified by consent of parties must be documented, and the absence of such documentation raises questions about its validity. Ultimately, the Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the review petition, affirming the principle that consent must be formally recorded to be enforceable.
