Value of subject matters [Repealed]
Full Text
[Value of subject matters.]—Omitted by the Code of Civil Procedure (Amendment) Act, 1973 (49 of 1973), s. 3 (w.e.f. 29-11-1973).
Plain English Summary
Section 110, which previously prescribed valuation thresholds (originally ₹10,000, later ₹20,000) for appeals to the Supreme Court, was repealed and omitted by the CPC (Amendment) Act, 1973 following the 30th Constitutional Amendment.
Key Legal Elements
- Repealed Provision: Omitted by CPC (Amendment) Act 49 of 1973 w.e.f. November 29, 1973.
- Abolition of Pecuniary Test: Eliminated monetary valuation thresholds for appeals to the Supreme Court in conformity with the 30th Constitutional Amendment.
Practical Note
Legislative History & Omission of Pecuniary Thresholds: Prior to 1973, civil appeals to the Supreme Court were maintainable as a matter of right if the valuation of the subject matter was ₹20,000 or more. The 30th Constitutional Amendment (1972) abolished pecuniary valuation as a criteria for Supreme Court appeals, emphasizing that the apex court's time should be reserved for substantial questions of law of general importance rather than monetary value. Consequently, Section 110 was omitted.
