Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decree passed under Order XXXVII Rule 3 of the Code of Civil Procedure, affirming that the appellant failed to file an application for leave to defend the summary suit, resulting in an ex parte decree. The Court noted that the grounds for setting aside the decree under Order IX Rule 13 CPC were not met, as the summons was duly served and there was no sufficient cause for non-appearance. Consequently, the appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the application to set aside the decree was rejected.
