Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals challenging the Karnataka High Court's orders that rejected the appellants' petitions under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C. The court found that the agreements for sale were valid and the payments made were acknowledged by the respondent, who was avoiding the registration of the sale deed. The court emphasized the need for proper legal recourse in such matters rather than allowing the avoidance of contractual obligations.
