The Gauhati High Court held that litigants cannot seek repeated adjournments during trial and later blame their lawyers for the resulting delay to reopen or prolong the proceedings. The Court said such tactics cannot be permitted in the interest of justice.
The Supreme Court ended a land dispute that lasted 70 years and spanned four generations by upholding a registered 1957 sale deed. The Court ruled that minor discrepancies cannot invalidate a sale deed unless there are allegations of fraud or forgery.
