<\/span>Core Proposition<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An appellate court may grant a relief not appealed against only where that relief is inseparably connected with, or necessarily dependent upon, the relief actually challenged. Where the two reliefs are independent, Order XLI Rule 33 CPC cannot be used to revive a refused relief in favour of a party who neither appealed nor filed a cross-objection.<\/p>
