Summary: The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's orders dated 04.02.1995 and 21.11.2000 that had set aside a trial court award converted into decree. Finding it significant that the appellant failed to appear before the High Court when the impugned orders were passed, the Court remanded the appeals back to the High Court for a fresh decision after hearing the appellant. Liberty was granted to the appellant to approach the High Court for expeditious disposal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
