https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=782337 Section 19 of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 confers an appeal only from an order passed in the exercise of jurisdiction to punish for contempt. Where a contempt petition is dismissed because deliberate or intentional disobedience is not made out, and no punishment under Section 12 is imposed, the order is not appealable under Section 19. The tribunal held that contempt proceedings are between the court and the alleged contemnor, so an appeal does not lie merely because contempt was declined. The dismissal of the contempt petitions was therefore upheld as not maintainable in appeal. en-us Wed, 15 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 28 Nov 2025 08:24:24 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=782337 Section 19 of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 confers an appeal only from an order passed in the exercise of jurisdiction to punish for contempt.
