#Superintendence Jurisdiction

The Gauhati High Court has ruled that Article 227 cannot be invoked to correct mere legal errors in vacation of temporary injunctions - only perversity or illegality justifies interference. This reinforces the high threshold for supervisory jurisdiction in civil disputes involving trade union identity, affecting unions and employers navigating parallel litigation over organizational legitimacy.

The Punjab & Haryana High Court permitted amendment of a plaint to introduce a 30-year-old unregistered will, holding that delay alone cannot override the need to resolve the real dispute between parties. This reinforces that procedural fairness under CPC trumps technicalities when substantive justice hinges on previously concealed evidence.

The Jammu & Kashmir High Court ruled that orders passed under Section 104 of the J&K Constitution-exercising superintendence over civil courts-cannot be challenged via Letters Patent Appeal. This holding reinforces the exclusivity of superintendence jurisdiction, barring appellate remedies against such orders and impacting land acquisition disputes and other civil court proceedings in the region.
