Orders
The Supreme Court dismissed Gokul Chandra Das's special leave petitions challenging the High Court of Jharkhand's orders. The Court held that Das could not simultaneously claim to be the executor under a will while challenging the will as forged and fabricated—an inconsistent and impermissible position. Applying the principle that one cannot approbate and reprobate at the same time, the SLPs were dismissed. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
