In Brief
The Supreme Court admitted a special leave petition challenging a High Court order that granted interim relief staying probate proceedings by removing a sole caveat. Rather than re-adjudicating the matter, the Court, noting the appeal was already admitted in the High Court, urged the High Court to dispose of the underlying appeal expeditiously within six months. The Supreme Court disposed of the case without expressing any opinion on the merits and with no order as to costs, leaving the substantive legal questions for the High Court to resolve.
