Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appeal against the rejection of the application to reject the plaint under Order VII Rule 11 of the CPC. The Court clarified that Section 228 of the Indian Succession Act does not have a prescribed period of limitation, thus Article 137 of the Limitation Act, 1963, is not applicable. The Court confirmed that the learned Single Judge's interpretation of the Act was correct, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
