(ii) Proceedings of contempt are summary in nature and also are sui generis; Golcha Advertising Agency v. The State of Maharashtra, (1990) 2 Bom CR 262 (Bom).
Query : What do u mean by summary in nature & sui generis ? with the help of a example(S).
Section 2 (b) "Civil contempt" means willful disobedience to any judgement, decree, direction, order, writ or other process of a court or willful breach of an undertaking given to a court.
Query : So can we say that oath take before the court or any magistrate whether in the courtroom were proceedings are going on & if the person who has take the oath as per the act act are also follows under the same context which is (undertaking given to a court) because there is no defination of "undertaking" ? Also can we say that while giving the oral evidence & standing in the witness box & take the oath that what will be said by me will be true & nothing other else while keeping the hand on the gita. & if if says wrong than he/she is laible for (willful breach of an undertaking given to a court) ?
Any APEX COURT Judgement OR correct me if i am wrong.
Thnaks In Advance.
God Bless U All.
