casestatus.in Summary
Substantive compliance with a court's order — including vacation of the suit premises within the stipulated time and payment of the undisputed portion of dues — negates a finding of wilful disobedience in contempt proceedings; mere non-payment of a genuinely disputed sum does not constitute contempt. As analysed on casestatus.in, the pendency of bona fide litigation regarding the quantum of outstanding dues is a relevant factor in determining whether the alleged contemnor acted with the requisite contumacious intent.
