Case Summary: C.A. No. 5394/1998 On 21 August 2001, the Supreme Court allowed the appeal filed by Krishnaji S. Patil against the High Court's dismissal of his suit for specific performance of a land sale agreement. The Court held that filing a suit on the last day of the limitation period does not constitute laches sufficient to deny specific performance, particularly when all courts found the agreement genuine and the suit timely filed. The Court set aside the High Court's judgment and decreed specific performance in favor of the appellants, with no order as to costs.
