Webinar on “Insight int Civil Procedure Code”

Webinar on “Insight int Civil Procedure Code” was conducted on 26/03/2022. The Law regulating the procedure to be followed in civil court is governed by the Civil Procedure Code and this Civil Procedure Code is one of the most important branches of procedural law. As we all know, “Ignorance of law is not a defense” and every Indian should know the laws of this nation. This webinar will fresh up you on important areas of CPC including inherent powers, reference, review & revision and jurisdiction. It refreshes and brings you an enlightened scope in CPC.

In order to understand concepts such as Reference, review and revision, as per Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (CPC), a party, who is offended by the decision of the court, can reach out to higher court by way of appeal against the decision given by the trial court/lower court. In case of appeal, the entire judgement is scrutinized and heard again by the higher authority. However, in the case, where there is a prima facie error on technical or procedural ground, the parties are not required to file a fresh case and appeal. In such cases, CPC has the provision of reference review and revision under section 113, 114 and 115 of CPC respectively, which will be discussed in detail by MR ANAND KUMAR, GOVERNMENT PLEADER

Inherent powers are the powers of the court which are helpful in minimizing litigation, avoid multiplicity of proceedings and to render complete justice between two parties. Section 148 to 153B of CPC discusses the provisions of the Inherent powers of the Court. The provisions regarding the enlargement of time, payment of court fees, transfer of the business of one court to another court, end of justice, abuse of process of the court, amendment of judgement, decree, orders, and records will be discussed by MRS HEPZIBA, ADVOCATE- MADRAS HIGHCOURT

Civil court has jurisdiction to investigate whether tribunal and quasi-judicial bodies or legal executive acted within their jurisdiction. It can be presumed that section 9 essentially deals with the issue of the civil court’s jurisdiction to consider a matter. Civil court has jurisdiction to consider a suit of civil nature except when its notification is expressly barred or bared by significant suggestion. A detailed discussion will be done by MR MANIKANAN, ADVOCATE - MADRAS
