In Brief
Vimla Devi filed a Review Petition challenging a Supreme Court decision that had affirmed a High Court judgment restoring the Trial Court's order. The High Court had allowed the Second Appeal and the Court had previously dismissed the Special Leave Petition, affirming this view. The petitioner sought review of this decision. The Court found that the grounds advanced in the Review Petition did not disclose any error apparent on the face of the record. The 45-day delay in preferring the petition was condoned, but the petition itself was dismissed as the substantive grounds did not justify interference with the prior judgment."
