About this template

What is this template?

This is a formal sworn statement used in Indian civil litigation to request a temporary halt to lower court proceedings. It contains a verification clause, a statement of competence by the deponent, and an express claim of irreparable loss if the stay is not granted. It is not the Revision Petition itself but a supporting document for a Miscellaneous Petition within that revision.

When should you use it?

Use this when filing a Revision Petition under Section 115 of the CPC to stop a lower court from acting on a specific order while the High Court reviews its legality. Use an Affidavit for Interim Injunction instead if you are seeking a stay within an original suit rather than a Revision Petition.

Who it's for

  • a petitioner in India seeking to stay lower court proceedings while a High Court reviews a jurisdictional error
  • a party whose application challenging the maintainability of an appeal was dismissed by a District Court
  • an applicant alleging that proceeding on merits will cause irreparable loss or injury during a revision
