Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in dismissing the second appeal in limine, stating it involved substantial questions of law under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. The Court emphasized that the appeal should have been admitted for final hearing, as the rights of the parties were determined based on evidence, including a crucial document relied upon by both lower courts. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remanded the case for fresh consideration on merits.
