Criminal law cannot be used as munitions to settle personal scores, #SupremeCourt tells all men and women 🙂

This #SupremeCourt judgment by Justice BV Nagarathna must be referred by every lawyer defending a man who is accused of rape/deceit/fraud merely because he withdrew from a relationship:

SANTHOSH KUMAR N.P. v. STATE-STATION HOUSE OFFICER, KADIRUR POLICE, TELLICHERRY, KANNUR DISTRICT & ANOTHER caseciter.in/sci-judgments/d…

"Here we have a Tribunal ‘innovating at pleasure’" !

"The decisions of the highest court of the land to be followed, without which there will be mayhem." #SupremeCourt says it is conscious of the criticism that its decisions are supreme not because it is infallible but only because it is the final Court. However, finality and closure is the expedient need in litigation, the Court added.

Damodar Valley Corporation v. Maithan Alloys Limited & Ors. caseciter.in/sci-judgments/d…

#SupremeCourt reiterates principles governing the grant of leave to appeal to a person who was not a party to the original proceedings:

Who all can file First Appeal under S.96 CPC?

A stranger to a compromise decree is not barred from filing an appeal and can seek leave to appeal, holds #SupremeCourt !

GIRISHBHAI NATWARLAL PATEL v. GAUTAM PUNJABHAI PALKHIWALA (DEAD) BY LRS & ORS. caseciter.in/sci-judgments/d…

Is Section 37 jurisdiction as broad as Section 34 Jurisdiction?

Yet another saga of an arbitral award sailing into rough seas. 😅

Can a Court consider admissions made by a party in the course of proceedings in other suits relating to the same subject matter? #SupremeCourt discusses it here:

Shreeram Builders v. Upendra Kantilal Thanawala and others caseciter.in/sci-judgments/d…

Revenue entries made without any authority or jurisdiction constitute an act of nullity: #SupremeCourt !

BANDARI RAMCHANDER & ORS. v. MAITRI COOP. HOUSING SOCIETY LTD. & ORS. caseciter.in/sci-judgments/d…

A public interest litigant cannot move for withdrawal of the petition on the principle of dominus litis, without the leave of the Court, holds #SupremeCourt !

#SupremeCourt expresses a little bit of surprise and a lot more alarm, about a judgment of Karnataka High Court; Says it threw to the winds every tenet of law and is bordering on the absurd.
