In this case, while disposing of the appeal, High Court had not raised the points for determination as required under Or. 41 R. 31 CPC and being first appellate court had not discussed the entire matter and the issues in detail. High Court had neither re-appreciated the entire evidence on record nor had given any specific findings on the issues which were even raised before the trial court. Hence, held, approach of High Court was completely unsustainable. [K. Karuppuraj v. M.

The costs of Rs 25,000 was imposed on petitioner Union of India to be recovered from the officers concerned. Court has been imposing costs for wasting of judicial time in such matters which are filed with this oblique motive of saving the officers. Court had categorised such cases as \u201ccertificate cases\u201d. These are filed to obtain a certificate of dismissal from Supreme Court to put a quietus to the issue and to save the skin of defaulting officers. Despite repeated orders, very little is done at least in taking action against officers concerned who sit on files and do nothing. Presumption is as if Court will condone the delay for the asking. Court would not follow such a course. SLP dismissed on the ground of delay with imposition of costs as above. [Union of India v.

Further held, where the accused have not cooperated in the investigation nor appeared before the investigating officers, nor answered summons when the court feels that judicial custody of the accused is necessary for the completion of the trial, where further investigation including a possible recovery is needed, the benefit of the above guidelines cannot be given to such accused. Lastly, held, it is not as if economic offences not covered by Special Acts, are completely taken out of the aforesaid guidelines but do form a different nature of offences. Thus the seriousness of the charge has to be taken into account but simultaneously, the severity of the punishment imposed by the statute would also be a factor. [Satender Kumar Antil v.
