Haryana Dairy Dev. Coop. Fed. Ltd vs Jagdish Lal

The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition, emphasizing the need to alleviate the burden of petty cases on regular courts, as noted in Kadra Pahadiya and Others Vs. State of Bihar AIR 1997 SC 3750. The Court highlighted the excessive litigation costs relative to the stakes involved, as reported by the Law Commission of India in its 155th report. The Court ordered that litigation expenses be borne personally by the Managing Director who supported the petition, rather than by the Federation, while leaving any questions of law open for future consideration.
