Jagdeep Chowgule vs Sheela Chowgule

The Supreme Court examined the interpretation of the term 'Court' under Section 2(1)(e) of the relevant Act in the context of Section 29A. The case arose from conflicting High Court judgments on whether the definition of 'Court' should be uniformly applied or contextually interpreted to exclude certain courts under Section 29A. The Court analyzed the legislative intent and the scheme of the Act to resolve this divergence. Ultimately, the Supreme Court clarified the correct interpretation to ensure uniform application of the law and uphold the statutory framework.
