case involves a substantial question of law.

S. 100 – Second Appeal – Ground of Maintainability
 –
Only when High Court is satisfied that substantial question of law is involved From bare reading of the provision it is manifestly clear that an appeal shall lie to the High Court from an appellate decree only if the High Court is satisfied that the case involves a substantial question of law. It further mandates that the memorandum of appeal precisely states the substantial question of law involved in the appeal. If such an appeal is filed, the High Court while admitting or entertaining the appeal must record its satisfaction and formulate the substantial question of law involved in the appeal. The appeal shall then be heard on the questions so formulated and the respondent shall be allowed to argue only on those substantial questions of law. However, proviso to this section empowers the Court to hear on any substantial question of law not formulated after recording reasons.
