Substantial question of law governs High Court appeals; hearing is confined to the formulated question and decided by a multi-judge bench. Appeals to the High Court require a substantial question of law for admission; the Court formulates that question and confines the hearing to it, while retaining power to hear other substantial questions for recorded reasons. The High Court must decide the formulated question with reasons, may award costs, determine issues left or wrongly decided due to that question, and the appeal is heard by a Bench of at least two Judges with majority decision rules; certified copies implement judgments and Civil Procedure provisions apply as far as practicable.
