S.M. Asif vs Virendra Kumar Bajaj

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the Delhi High Court's orders dismissing the appellant-tenant's appeal and review petition regarding eviction from leased premises. The Court noted that the appellant had not pressed the appeal on merits and sought adjournment after changing counsel, which the High Court denied. The Court held that the High Court's decision to dispose of the appeal was justified as the appellant failed to demonstrate a valid reason for the adjournment request, affirming the lower court's order under Section 106 of the Transfer of Property Act.
