Mary Pushpam vs Telvi Curusumary And Ors.

The Supreme Court emphasized the importance of 'Judicial Discipline and Propriety' and the Doctrine of Precedents, asserting that decisions of coordinate benches must be respected unless referred to a larger bench. The Court upheld the principle that a bench of equal strength cannot disregard a prior decision but may refer it for reconsideration. The judgment confirmed the lower court's decree regarding the appellant's title and possession of a portion of the property, while dismissing the claim for the remaining area, thus maintaining the Trial Court's decision.
