Mst Anguri v. Smt Roopwati
Case brief
What is this about?
The Supreme Court held that the High Court Division Bench was not justified in quashing the lower court's order (dated 06.09.1999) without addressing the respondents' meritorious submissions, as the legacy of the case was fully extinguished once the divorce decree was pronounced. Consequently, no further judicial judgment on the merits was necessary.
What did the court decide?
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals, affirming the quashing of the High Court order without addressing the merits of the dispute.
