RAM AWADH PANDEY vs PIYUSH — C.A. No. 5137 - 5138/2005

Case Summary: RAM AWADH PANDEY v. PIYUSH (C.A. Nos. 5137-5138/2005) The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals filed by appellant Ram Awadh Pandey on April 23, 2013. The case involved a summary suit where the defendant-appellant failed to appear despite service of notice; he later claimed absence due to his wife's illness in Varanasi, but both the Small Causes Court and Delhi High Court rejected this explanation as palpably wrong, noting he had appeared before the Metropolitan Magistrate on the same date. The Supreme Court found no grounds for interference and upheld the lower courts' findings on evidence appreciation.
