Holding
A review can be granted only if an error is apparent on the face of the record; none was found, so the review was dismissed.
Summary
The applicant, Ravindra, filed a civil miscellaneous review application (No. 90 of 2026) challenging an order dated 21 April 2026 passed by the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad. The court examined whether the limited scope of review jurisdiction permitted reopening the matter on its merits. It held that review is permissible only when an error is apparent on the face of the record. Since no such apparent error was identified, the court concluded that the review application could not be entertained. Consequently, the application was dismissed. The judgment underscores the restrictive nature of review jurisdiction in civil proceedings.
Issues considered
- Whether the High Court has jurisdiction to entertain a review of its own order dated 21 April 2026.
- Whether an error apparent on the face of the record exists to justify the grant of review.
Subjects
- review jurisdiction
- civil procedure
- High Court of Allahabad

HON'BLE ABDUL SHAHID, J.
1. Heard learned counsel for the appellant.
2. This Court passed a well-considered order on 21.04.2026. The scope of
review jurisdiction is extremely limited. Unless an error is apparent on the
face of the record, the matter cannot be reopened for re-hearing on merits.
3. In view thereof, the review application is liable to be dismissed and is
accordingly dismissed.
