The appellant, having earlier withdrawn a prior SLP with liberty to seek review before the HC under Article 226, could not re-agitate the parent order after the review failed; the Court applied the merger principle under Order XLVII r.7(1) CPC and held that rejection of a review affirms the original order and does not merge into a new decree.

Preliminary objections by the respondent were upheld and the appeal was dismissed. en-us Wed, 01 Oct 2025 09:07:53 +0530 Wed, 01 Oct 2025 09:07:54 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=92978 The SC dismissed the second SLP under Article 136 as not maintainable.
