About this template

What is this template?

This document is a formal memorandum of appeal used to challenge a lower court's decree in the District Court of Allahabad. It is not a writ petition or a new original suit; it is a continuation of an existing Title Suit. The form contains specific sections for the value of the appeal and the numbered grounds of objection.

When should you use it?

Use this form when a Subordinate Judge has dismissed a suit or passed an unfavorable decree and you wish to escalate the matter to the District Judge. Use a Special Leave Petition instead if you are appealing directly to the Supreme Court.

Who it's for

  • a plaintiff-appellant in India appealing a subordinate judge's decision to a District Judge
  • a party seeking to overturn a decree in Title Suit proceedings within the Allahabad jurisdiction
