Substantial question of law: High Court admits appeals focusing hearing on the formulated legal question and bench majority.

Appeals from the State Bench or Area Benches to the High Court lie where the High Court is satisfied a substantial question of law is involved. Appeals must be filed within the prescribed period unless sufficient cause for delay is shown. The High Court formulates the question of law and hears the appeal primarily on that question, though it may entertain additional substantial questions for reasons recorded. A Bench of not less than two Judges hears appeals, decides by majority, and may remit differing points for rehearing; certified copies give effect to its judgment and Civil Procedure Code provisions on appeals apply as far as practicable.
