Quick Summary: On December 24, 2025, the Delhi High Court sided with Pawan Dube in a case involving late paperwork. Judge Girish Kathpalia allowed the case to continue, but Pawan had to pay a fine for the delay.
In the Delhi High Court, Pawan Dube, with the help of his lawyers, was up against Deepa Tuteja and another person. The problem was about paperwork being submitted late. Even though some papers were submitted on time, others were not. This case was affected by a previous court decision, Pragati Construction Consultants vs Union of India & Another, 2025.
Judge Girish Kathpalia made an important decision. He agreed to cancel the previous decision, allowing the late paperwork to be accepted. This means the trial court can now use these papers and continue with the case.
"The challenged order is canceled and the request is approved," said Judge Kathpalia.
However, there was a condition. Because of the delay, Pawan Dube was ordered to pay a fine. He must pay Rs.10,000 to Deepa Tuteja through her lawyer within a week. This was a penalty for not submitting everything on time.
With the pending application resolved, the case will now continue in the trial court. Both sides can carry on with their legal battle, but this time with all the necessary paperwork in place.
This decision highlights the importance of submitting documents on time in court. It also shows how past cases can affect current decisions.
