Supreme Court3 November 2015Anil R. Dave · S.A. Bobde

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

A substantial question of law need not be framed by the High Court when dismissing a second appeal at the admission stage; the requirement to frame a substantial question of law arises only when the High Court admits a second appeal or decides it finally by allowing it.

ANIL R. DAVE, J.

1. Leave granted.

2. Heard the learned counsel.

Signature Not Verified

3. The main submission which has been advanced by the Digitally signed by Sarita Purohit Date: 2015.11.07 11:31:08 IST Reason: learned counsel appearing for the appellants is that the

second appeal was dismissed by the High Court without

1 framing any substantial question of law.

4. In our opinion, a substantial question of law is not

required to be framed if the High Court decides to dismiss

the second appeal at an admission stage. Only in a case

where the second appeal is admitted or is decided finally

by allowing the same, a substantial question of law is

required to be framed by the High Court.

5. In the instant case, no substantial question of law

was involved in the second appeal and therefore, the High

Court had rightly dismissed the second appeal at the

admission stage by passing the impugned order. We,

therefore, see no reason to entertain this Petition.

6. A request has been made by the learned senior counsel

appearing on behalf of the appellants that the appellants

are tenants and doing their bussiness in the shops in

question for the last 35 years and therefore, some time may

be granted to them for vacating the shops.

7. Looking at the afore-stated facts, we direct that the

appellants shall not be evicted till 31 st December, 2016, on

filing of usual undertakings by them within four weeks from

today.

8. In the meantime, by way of mesne profit the

appellants shall continue to pay Rs. 1,500/- (Rupees One

Thousand Five Hundred only) every month to the respondent.

The amount deposited by the appellants with this Court

2 shall be paid to the respondent by way of account payee

cheque and the cheque shall be handed over to the learned

counsel for the respondent. The said amount shall be

treated as costs.

9. The appeal is disposed of as dismissed with the above

directions. Pending application, if any, stands disposed

of.
