Non-Filing of Certified Copy of Order in E-appeals is a Technical Issue, Not Ground for Appeal Dismissal: Allahabad HC

The Allahabad High Court has ruled that the non-filing of a certified copy of an order in e-appeals is a technical issue and should not be a ground for dismissing an appeal. The court emphasized that procedural lapses should not prevent the merits of a case from being heard. This decision is significant as it ensures that taxpayers are not unfairly penalized for minor procedural errors in the digital filing process. The ruling highlights the importance of substantive justice over procedural technicalities, especially in the context of the increasing digitization of the legal process.
