Section 111A — [Omitted]
A short-lived provision on appeals to the Federal Court. It was inserted in 1937 (when the Federal Court was set up) and repealed in 1941 — long before the Supreme Court took the Federal Court’s place.
Former marginal heading: 111A. Appeals to Federal Court.
Inserted by the Adaptation of Laws Order, 1937 (A.O. 1937), and repealed by the Federal Court Act, 1941 (21 of 1941), s. 2. The section now reads simply “[Omitted.]”.
In short
The Government of India Act, 1935 created the Federal Court (which began work in 1937). To channel civil appeals to it, the Adaptation of Laws Order, 1937 inserted § 111A into the Code — “Appeals to Federal Court.”
That arrangement was brief. The Federal Court Act, 1941 took over the subject of appeals to the Federal Court directly, and its section 2 repealed § 111A as no longer needed.
The Federal Court itself was later replaced by the Supreme Court in 1950. Today the apex civil appeal is governed by § 109 and the Constitution’s Article 133 / Article 136 — so § 111A is doubly spent.
