Case History
The Supreme Court allowed tenant K. Raghunath's appeal against the Karnataka High Court's dismissal of his revision petition in an eviction case. The Court held that since the revision petition was filed within the prescribed 90-day period (April 6, 2000) and rent arrears were paid shortly thereafter (April 11, 2000), both within the permissible timeframe under Section 29 of the Karnataka Rent Control Act read with Rule 9, the High Court erred in dismissing the petition on technical grounds rather than addressing the merits. The matter was remitted to the High Court for substantive consideration of the revision petition. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
