Write notes on the following: (ii) Special Leave Petition (SLP)

Special leave petition (SLP) means that an individual takes special permission to be heard in Apex Court in appeal against any court/tribunal verdict. Section 112 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 keeps the powers of the Supreme Court under Article 136 of the Constitution to grant special leave to appeal from any judgement, decree, determination, sentence or order in any cause or matter passed or made by any Court or tribunal in the territory of India, beyond the scope of the provisions of the Code. Where a High Court refuses to issue the required certificate under Article 134A of the Constitution of India to enable an aggrieved party to appeal to the Supreme Court against the judgment, order or sentence awarded by the High Court, the aggrieved party may file a petition in the Supreme Court for grant of special leave to appeal under Article 136 of the Constitution.
