CPC Section 130 — Power of other High Courts to make rules as to matters other than procedure

Civil

Summary

A High Court that is not one of the three presidency High Courts (Calcutta, Madras, or Bombay) can create rules about non-procedural matters. To do so, it must first get approval from the State Government. These rules can cover any matter that a High Court for a State could make under Article 227 of the Constitution for areas outside a presidency town.

Official Text

A High Court not being a High Court to which section 129 applies may, with the previous approval of the State Government, make with respect to any matter other than procedure any rule which a High Court for a State might under article 227 of the Constitution make with respect to any such matter for any part of the territories under its jurisdiction which is not included within the limits of a presidency town.
