Robin Thapa vs Rohit Dora

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's order setting aside the Trial Court's decision under Order 9 Rule 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 was erroneous. The Court emphasized that litigation should be resolved on merits rather than by default, citing the need for justice and fair opportunity to contest. The Court found that the appellant had not been adequately notified of the proceedings, thus allowing the appeal and reinstating the Trial Court's order to set aside the ex parte decree.
