Case Note & Summary
The Supreme Court of India addressed a civil appeal arising from a Special Leave Petition. The appellants, Nani and another, challenged a judgment from the High Court, asserting that it did not frame a substantial question of law as mandated by Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. The Court noted that the absence of such a question rendered the High Court's judgment unsustainable. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the impugned judgment and remitted the matter back to the High Court for fresh consideration, ensuring that all contentions of the parties would remain open for deliberation. The decision emphasized the importance of adhering to procedural requirements in civil litigation.
