In Brief
The appellant sought a contempt petition in the Supreme Court against the High Court's order dismissing his earlier contempt petition alleging non-implementation of a court order. The original order had granted the appellant liberty to approach the Registrar of Companies (ROC) to obtain certified copies of documents, but he failed to do so despite multiple opportunities. The Supreme Court held that the contempt petition was misconceived as there was no clear court direction being disobeyed—only a discretionary liberty. The appeal was disposed of by granting the appellant fresh liberty to approach the ROC within two months for compliance.", <parameter name="cited_cases">[]
