Summary of C.A. No. 000547/2002 (Tejinder Kaur v. Sarla Gopalan) The Supreme Court granted leave and set aside the High Court's dismissal of contempt proceedings on limitation grounds, citing the precedent in Pallav Seth v. Custodian. The Court remitted the matter to the High Court to adjudicate the contempt proceedings on merits, while directing that only the two respondents originally impleaded as contemnors proceed (the seven additional parties arrayed in Supreme Court cannot be added without High Court approval). The High Court was directed to dispose the contempt matter expeditiously. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
