Dear Members,
Civil Law or a Civil Court implies regular trial based on which the admissibility or the proof of documents or its execution, the veracity of the statements of the witnesses and the contents of the documents are taken on record to give findings by the Civil Court on the rights and liabilities of the parties to the suit. In contrast, the term Summary Jurisdiction is applied to many a fora including High Courts(Writ Jurisdiction), Consumer Courts etc. Can any member help me by specifying the distinctions with which a Court under summary jurisdiction has to adjudicate and also the limitations of such courts in accepting whatever document is produced or whatever is stated in the pleadings?
