Substantial question of law limits appeals to the formulated issue and confines hearing to that legal question before a multi-judge bench. An appeal to the High Court from Appellate Tribunal orders is permissible only if the Court is satisfied a substantial question of law is involved; the Court formulates that question, confines the hearing thereto (unless for recorded reasons it hears other substantial questions), decides and records reasons, may award costs, and may determine issues left undetermined or wrongly decided by the Tribunal. Appeals are to be heard by a bench of at least two judges and decided by majority, with procedure for resolving split benches; certified copies enforce judgment and appeal procedure rules of the Civil Procedure Code apply as far as relevant.
