Indore Development Authority And Etc. vs Manoharlal And Ors. Etc. on 23 October, 2019
United States 333 US 611: “I see no reason why I should be
consciously wrong today because I was unconsciously wrong
yesterday.” Lord Denning also said to the same effect when he
observed in Ostime v. Australian Mutual Provident Society
(1960) AC 549: “The doctrine of precedent does not compel
Your Lordships to follow the wrong path until you fall over the
edge of the cliff.” Here we find that there are overriding
considerations which compel us to reconsider and review the
decision in Cloth Traders case (supra).
