casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: C.A. No. 5578/1998 Joginder Singh challenged his reversion from Inspector to a lower post, claiming it was illegal. The trial and appellate courts dismissed his suit, and the High Court rejected his second appeal, reasoning that since senior officers remained unpromotedthe case didn't warrant intervention. The Supreme Court found this reasoning erroneous, holding that the legality of reversion raised a substantial question of law under Section 100 CPC. The Court allowed the appeal and remitted the matter to the High Court for proper consideration of the second appeal on merits. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
