MALATI BAI vs SHRIKANT . — SLP(C) No. 22353/2008

Summary of SLP(C) No. 022353/2008 – Malati Bai v. Shrikant Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition on April 2, 2013. The Court upheld the Karnataka High Court's decision, finding no error in dismissing Malati Bai's second appeal. The respondents' suit for permanent injunction restraining the petitioner from interfering with their property possession was upheld, and the release deed dated May 4, 1994 was deemed valid and binding. Reasoning: The Court noted that although Malati Bai filed a counter-claim challenging the validity of the release deed at the trial court, she failed to appeal or file a cross-objection when the trial court decided against her on this issue. Therefore, the High Court correctly refused to reconsider the matter in the second appeal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
