Certify, The word 'certify' in the Article 134 (1) (C) of the Constitution of India has a clear meaning. It requires that when giving the leave to appeal, the High Court must first determine the issue of law which in its opinion is needed to be settled by the Supreme Court and such question must be clearly set out in its order. It is well-established that mere grant of certificate by the High Court does not prevent this Court from determining whether it was rightly granted and whether the conditions prerequisite for the grant of certificates are satisfied, T.B. Thakore v. State of Maharashtra, (1969) 3 SCC 369 (371). [Constitution of India, Art. 134 (1) (c)]The word 'certify' used in clause (c) of article 133(1) suggests that the High Court is expected to apply its mind before certifying the case to be fit for appeal. The mere grant of a certificate would, however, not preclude this Court from determining whether the conditions pre-requisite for the grant are satisfied. It is, therefor...

Certifies
Certifies, the word 'certifies' is a strong word. It indicates that the High Court must bring its mind to bear on the question and as in all cases of judicial orders and certificates, the reasons for the order must be apparent on the face of the order itself. The Supreme Court must be in a position to know first that the High Court had applied its mind to the matter and not acted mechanically and, secondly, exactly what the High Court's difficulty is and exactly what question of outstanding difficulty or importance the High Court feels the Supreme Court ought to settle, Baladin v. State of Uttar Pradesh, AIR 1956 SC 181 (188). [Constitution of India, Art. 134(1)(c)]The word 'certifies' in sub-article (1)(c) is a strong word which requires the High Court to look closely into the case to see if any special consideration arise. If a case does not involve any question of law, then however difficult the question of fact may be, that would not justify the grant of a certificate under Article...
