The Supreme Court's ruling on the statutory right to seek restoration of proceedings under Order 23 Rule 3 CPC has set a strong precedent. In this landmark judgment, the Court emphasized that procedural constraints cannot defeat substantive justice.

By setting aside the Rajasthan High Court's dismissal, the Supreme Court reiterated that the court recording the compromise is the sole authority to assess its validity and emphasized the importance of ensuring access to statutory remedies as a matter of public policy. This decision reinforces the principle that procedural technicalities should never bar access to justice. #justice #supremecourt #lawupdates #civilprocedure #statutoryrights #legalremedies #restorationofproceedings #compromisedecree #publicpolicy #legalprecedent

The #Allahabad_High_Court has clarified an important aspect of #Section_83 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) regarding the attachment of property. Core Ruling: * Only property belonging to the proclaimed person (the accused) can be attached under Section 83 CrPC. * The court must have a #prima_facie_finding that the #property_belongs to the #accused before issuing an attachment order. * No attachment order can be passed without a prima facie finding that the property belongs to the accused. * Mere residence in rented premises does not empower authorities to seize or attach the #rented_property, as it does not belong to the proclaimed person. #Section_83 CrPC: Section 83 of the CrPC allows a court to attach the property of a person who has been proclaimed an offender (absconding from justice) to secure their presence or to realize the fine or compensation awarded against them. This ruling emphasizes the importance of establishing ownership of the property before attaching it under Section 83 CrPC, and #prevents #misuse of power by authorities.
