Century Flour Mills Ltd. vs S. Suppiah And Ors. on 11 March, 1975
In Century Flour Mills Ltd. v. S.
Suppiah [AIR 1975 Mad 270 : (1975) 2 MLJ 54] it was held by
a Full Bench of the Madras High Court that where an act is done
in violation of an order of stay or injunction, it is the duty of the
court, as a policy, to set the wrong right and not allow the
perpetuation of the wrongdoing. The inherent power of the court,
it was held, is not only available in such a case, but it is bound to
exercise it to undo the wrong in the interest of justice. That was
a case where a meeting was held contrary to an order of
injunction. The Court refused to recognise that the holding of the
meeting is a legal one. It put back the parties in the same position
as they stood immediately prior to the service of the interim
order.
