Headnote	Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 – s.103 – High Courts’ jurisdiction to appreciate factual issues u/s.103 CPC – Held: High Courts are empowered to exercise limited factual review u/s.103 CPC – The rule that sans a substantial question of law, the High Courts cannot interfere with findings of the lower Court or concurrent findings of fact, is subject to two important caveats – The first is that, if the findings of fact are palpably perverse or outrage the conscience of the Court; in other words, it flies on the face of logic that given the facts on the record, interference would be justified – The other is where the findings of fact may call for examination and be upset, in the limited circumstances spelt out in s.103 CPC – In the present case, the High Court recorded sound and convincing reasons why the first appellate court’s judgment required interference – The first appellate court fell into error in overlooking important evidence and appreciating the record in its true perspective, and reversed the decree of the trial court – High Court, in second appeal proceeded to examine the documents in light of the evidence led and corrected the findings as it were u/s.103 – Impugned judgment of High Court does not expressly refer to s.103, however, in the circumstances of the case, it is evident that the High Court exercised power in the light of that provision.
