Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court emphasized the necessity for the High Court to clearly formulate and state substantial questions of law when admitting an appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that the failure to do so compromises the fairness of the proceedings, as parties must be aware of the legal questions at stake to adequately prepare their arguments. The judgment reiterates that appeals should be dismissed if no substantial question of law is identified, ensuring adherence to procedural fairness and clarity in legal proceedings.
