Vijay Kumar,
Decrees are of two types. Preliminary decree and final decree.
a preliminary decree does not dispose off the suit completely. However the adjudication decides the rights of the parties with regard to all or any of the matters in controversy in a suit. this can be appealed within limitation period.A final decree is when a suit is completely disposed off. Even if the time of appeal is expired for a decree it becoms a final decree.

Is there a "standard" limitation period which ensures that the suit does not drag on after the preliminary decres is passed? What is the typical duration of timr betwen preliminary- and final decrees?
thanks!
