Writ Petition Cannot be Filed Twice Against Same Dismissal Order: Delhi HC Rules in Favor of Customs
The Delhi High Court ruled in favor of Customs, stating that a writ petition cannot be filed twice against the same dismissal order. The court emphasized the principle of res judicata, which prevents a party from bringing the same claim or issue before a court after it has already been decided. The High Court held that once a writ petition challenging a dismissal order has been dismissed, the petitioner cannot file another writ petition seeking the same relief based on the same grounds.
