Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the challenge to the Jharkhand High Court's refusal to grant interim relief under Order XXXIX Rules 1 and 2 of the CPC in a property dispute involving land purchased by late Smt. Shyal Devi. The Court held that the findings of the Additional District Judge regarding the failure to establish title by Smt. Shyal Devi were final, thus allowing the Bihar State Road Transport Corporation to pursue eviction. The judgment emphasized the importance of establishing title in property disputes, particularly when prior judgments have not been contested.
