Chiranjeevi Rao Vs. State of AP & Ors. [2009] INSC 542 (17 March 2009)
Judgment
IN THE
SUPREME COURT OF INDIA CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL APPEAL NO.2629 OF
2009 (Arising out of SLP(C) No. 16522 of 2007) Ragulavalasa Chiranjeevi Rao
..........Appellant Versus State of Andhra Pradesh & Ors.
........Respondents ORDER Leave granted.
2) We
have heard the learned counsel for the parties.
3) In
this appeal, the appellant challenges the judgment and order passed by the High
Court of Andhra Pradesh in Second Appeal No. 347 of 1997 dated 21.2.2007.
4) We
have carefully perused the judgment of the High Court. In our considered view,
the approach of the High Court is contrary to the mandatory provisions of
Section 100 of Code of Civil Procedure. On this short ground, the judgment of
the High Court is unsustainable 1 and therefore requires to be set aside. We do
so. The High Court will now consider as to whether any substantial question of
law or questions of law would arise on the basis of the pleadings of the
parties, if they arise as indicated above, and then, will hear the parties and dispose
of the same in accordance with law. The appeal is disposed of accordingly.
