Question of law arising out of such order
Question of law arising out of such order, s. 66(1) speaks of a question of law that arises out of the order of the Tribunal. Now a question of law might be a simple one, having its impact at one point, or it may be a complex one, trenching over an area with approaches leading to different points therein. Such a question might involve more than one aspect, requiring to be tackled from different standpoints. All that s. 66(1) requires is that the question of law which is referred to the Court for decision and which the Court is to decide must be the question which was in issue before the Tribunal. Where the question itself was under issue, there is no further limitation imposed by the section that the reference should be limited to those aspects of the question which had been argued before the Tribunal. It will be an over-refinement of the position to hold that each aspect of a question is itself a distinct question for the purpose of s. 66(1) of the Act, Commissioner of Income Tax v. I...
Rejected
Rejected, in a hierarchical system of courts which exists in our country, all courts and tribunals including the High Court exercising judicial and quasi-judicial functions owe it a duty to pass reasoned orders. There is a growing tendency in some of the High Courts to dismiss petitions filed under Article 226 or 227 of the Constitution in limine without a speaking order just by the use of a laconic word 'rejected' or 'dismissed'. Quite often the Supreme Court has decreed that while dis-missing a writ petition summarily, the High Court must record reasons briefly, Arun Mohadeorao Damka v. Additional Inspector General of Police, AIR 1986 SC 1497 (1499): (1986) 3 SCC 696: (1986) 2 SCR 1101....
Dismissed
Dismissed, denotes both termination of service for misconduct by way of punishment and also termination of service simpliciter, Workers Employed in Hirakud Dam v. State of Orissa, (1971) 1 SCC 583: AIR 1971 SC 2242: (1971) 3 SCR 646.Power to dismiss an appeal in limine is a power which must be exercised sparingly and with great circumspection. One would think a conviction for murder and a sentence of imprisonment for life were serious enough matters for the High Court to warrant 'admission' of the appeal and fair and independent consideration of the evidence by the High Court. Summary rejection of the appeal with the laconic expression 'dismissed' seems to be a drastic step in such cases. To so reject an appeal is to practically deny the right of appeal. One cannot also overemphasise the importance of the High Court making a speaking order when dismissing a criminal appeal in limine. 'The requirement of recording reasons for summary dismissal, however concise, serves to ensure proper f...

Writs were also in constant use for financial and political purposes of government.
