Orders
Case Summary: Ashalata Pachhal v. Union of India (C.A. No. 638/2004) Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the appeal and set aside the High Court's ex-parte orders dated 9.7.2002 and 20.1.2003. The court found it inappropriate for the High Court to decide the matter in the appellant's absence without providing her an opportunity to be heard. Next Steps: The appeal is restored to its original number for merit-based decision-making by the High Court, with directions to expedite the hearing.
