Pooja Devi and Ors. v. Chajuram and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court examined an appeal seeking admission of a petition for specific performance and grant of ad-interim relief. The court adjudicated the question whether the lower court was justified in denying a claim for payment, considering the precedent set in Sarla Verma Case and procedural adjudicatory facts. The court held that the appeal would eventually have to be heard by the District Court.
What did the court decide?
The High Court disposed of the initial inquiry, held ad-interim relief should not be granted in this appeal, and directed that the question should be heard in the main suit.
