Thus, in our view, the High Court was correct in holding that Section 89 of the CPC and Section 69-A of the 1955 Act be interpreted liberally. In view of this broad purposive construction, we affirm the High Court's conclusion, and hold that Section 89 of CPC shall cover, and the benefit of Section 69-A of the 1955 Act shall also extend to, all methods of out-of-court dispute settlement between parties that the Court subsequently finds to have been legally arrived at. This would, thus, cover the present controversy, wherein a private settlement was arrived at, and a memo to withdraw the appeal was filed before the High Court. In such a case as well, the appellant i.e., Respondent No.1 herein would be entitled to refund of court fee."
In view of the law laid down by the Apex Court Registry is directed to refund
the court fee deposited by the appellant before the Court within 30 days as per the
rules.
Accordingly, the appeal stands disposed of.
Certified copy, as per Rules.
