Order Granting Leave Under Section 92 CPC Is Judicial Order And Amenable To Revisional Jurisdiction: Madras High Court

The Madras High Court ruled that orders passed under Section 92 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) are judicial, not administrative. This decision came in response to a petition challenging an order passed by a single judge under Section 92 CPC, which deals with public charities. The court emphasized that such orders must be treated as judicial decisions, subject to appeal. The bench clarified that the judicial nature of these orders ensures that they are made following due process and legal scrutiny. The court’s ruling underscores the importance of judicial oversight in matters involving public charities, ensuring that decisions are made transparently and can be contested through appropriate legal channels. This decision reinforces the principle that judicial orders, even in the context of public charities, must adhere to the standards of fairness and accountability inherent in the judicial process.
