You filed E.P. other party wants to file S.L.P. in the S.C. you file Caveat, so that notice will be served to before admission, you defend see that is S.>l.P. is dismissed. Your father is 85 years senior citizen Fact Track of cases available.

Dear Querist,

Since the matter involves of execution of decree in respect of an arbitral award which has money element, against the said Order passed by the Hon'ble DB of Delhi HC, the Judgement Debtor (Opp. Party) may approach the Hon'ble Supreme Court in SLP. If you contemplate said move of the JD, you will need to file Caveat in SC so that no Order is passed in the proposed SLP without hearing you.

When you file the suggested Caveat in the Registry of the SC, the JD who is petitioner in the proposed SLP, has to serve upon you the paperbook on you and then only the SLP would be listed / heard.

Trust this would suffice.

Since it is a money decree, when the opposite party chooses to file Appeal in the High Court division bench, it is mandatory that the opposite party should pay half of the decreetal amount to you. Unless the opp party pays the 50% amount the appeal before division bench will not be numbered. You will be relieved to some extent. Relating to the rest of the amount, already the above experts have guided you well. Follow their advice.
