Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an appeal and a special leave petition?

An appeal is a statutory right available under specific laws. A Special Leave Petition (SLP) under Article 136 is a discretionary remedy — the Supreme Court may or may not grant leave to appeal.

What is the limitation period for filing an SLP?

An SLP must be filed within 90 days from the date of the High Court's judgment. For appeals from other tribunals, the period may vary. Delay can be condoned if sufficient cause is shown.

Can I file an appeal in the Supreme Court from Asansol?

Yes, you can file an appeal from anywhere in India. The Supreme Court accepts e-filing, and our advocate can help you file the petition from Asansol without requiring you to travel to Delhi.

What are the chances of the Supreme Court granting leave in an SLP?

The Supreme Court grants leave in about 10-15% of SLPs. The court considers whether the case involves a substantial question of law, public importance, or a grave miscarriage of justice.

What is the court fee for filing a Supreme Court case?

Court fees vary — for an SLP, the fee is typically Rs. 250. For appeals, the fee depends on the case type. Additional costs include drafting charges, advocate fees, and miscellaneous expenses.

How long does a Supreme Court case take?

Simple cases are disposed of in 6-12 months. Complex cases involving constitutional questions may take 2-5 years. Urgent matters like death penalty cases are heard expeditiously.

Can I appear in the Supreme Court without a lawyer?

You can appear in person (party-in-person), but it is strongly discouraged. The Supreme Court has complex procedures and requires expert legal representation.

How can a lawyer help with a Supreme Court appeal?

A Supreme Court lawyer can assess the merits of your case, draft the SLP or appeal, compile the paper book, argue the case before the court, and handle all procedural requirements.
