To stand or not to stand as a candidate
To stand or not to stand as a candidate, a person who has been or claims to have been duly nominated as a candidate as any election and any such person shall be deemed to have been a candidate as from the time when, with the election in prospect, he began to hold himself out as a prospective candidate. The first part of the definition requires that in order to be a candidate a person should have been duly nominated as a candidate. But it may sometimes happen that though a person claims to have been duly nominated, the validity of his nomination is in dispute: such a person would also be a candidate within the meaning of the definition.

See INTERLOCUTORY.As a result of the further inquiries conducted pursuant to the preliminary decree, the rights of the parties are fully determined and a decree is passed in accordance with such determination which is final. Both the decrees are in the same suit. Final decree may be said to become final in two ways: (i) when the time for appeal has expired without any appeal being filed against the preliminary decree or the matter has been decided by the highest Court; (ii) when, as regards the court passing the decree, the same stands completely disposed of. It is in the latter sense the word 'decree' is used in s. 2(2) of CPC. The appealability of the decree will, therefore, not affect its character as a final decree. The final decre...
