LAW FOR ALL

Art. 227 of Constitution of India - writ petition challenging the order and judgement of Appeal court in landlord tenant case - Apex court held that It is well settled that the High Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India has jurisdiction to correct the error if apparent on the face of the record. But in the present case the respondents failed to bring on record as to what was the error committed by the District Judge in deciding the appeal. The claim of the appellant to use the premises forpersonal necessity is a question of fact which was decided by the District Judge on appreciation of evidence. There was no mixed question of law and fact involved in the case, much less question of law. The comparative hardship of tenant and landlord is a question of fact. In absence of any question of law involved with such facts, the High Court can not alter such finding under Articles 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India.= KALPESH HEMANTBHAI SHAH … APPELLANT VERSUS MANHAR AUTO STORES THROUGH ITS PARTNER & ORS. … RESPONDENTS = 2014 (Apr.Part) http://judis.nic.in/supremecourt/filename=41371
