Such orders would be large in number including orders in relation to discovery, inspection, case management hearing, admissibility of evidence, framing of issues, interrogatories, etc. This would make a mockery of the intended purpose of Parliament in enacting the Commercial Courts Act, which is to expedite trials in commercial suits of a specified value, and restrict the number of interlocutory appeals.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court rejected the argument that Section 14 read with Section 12 of the Admiralty Act, 2017 demonstrates legislative intent to permit appeals from any interim order passed by the Single Judge of a High Court exercising admiralty jurisdiction to a Division Bench of that High Court without any restriction or limitation. It was explained that the expression \u201cany interim order\u201d has to be read harmoniously with Order 43, Rule 1 CPC in view of Section 12 of the Admiralty Act read with Section 13 of the Commercial Courts Act.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is not the intent of the overriding provision of Section 14 to nullify Section 12 of the Admiralty Act. Section 12 of the Admiralty Act applies to all proceedings in the High Court whether they be original proceedings or appellate proceedings. On a harmonious reading of Sections 12 and 14 of the Admiralty Act with Section 13 of the Commercial Courts Act, an intra-court appeal under the Admiralty Act to the Commercial Division of the High Court would lie from any judgment, decree or final order under the Admiralty Act or an interim order under the Admiralty Act relatable to the orders specified in Order 43, Rule 1.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[OWNERS AND PARTIES INTERESTED IN THE VESSEL M.V.
