What is a Caveat Petition?
A Caveat Petition acts as a legal shield for any person expecting an appeal or case to be filed against them. When a caveat is filed, the court must notify the caveator (the person filing the caveat) before taking any action or passing an order in the concerned matter.
This means — no decision can be taken behind your back.
If a caveat is not filed, the court can pass an ex-parte order without hearing your side, which may cause significant inconvenience or injustice.

Types of Caveat Petitions
1. General Caveat Petition
Filed when the caveator anticipates that the opposite party will challenge a High Court order in the Supreme Court. Common in both civil and criminal cases, especially in Special Leave Petitions (SLP).
2. Caveat in Transfer Petition Cases
A Transfer Petition is filed when one party requests the Supreme Court to move a case from one state to another.
For example, in matrimonial cases, one spouse may seek to transfer proceedings to their own state. Filing a Caveat Petition ensures that you receive notice and an opportunity to present your case before such a transfer is granted.
Caveat Petition Validity and Renewal
A Caveat Petition remains valid for 90 days from the date of filing.
You can renew your caveat before it expires, and even if it lapses, you can file a fresh petition with the necessary documents.

Copy of the High Court judgment/order
-
Identity Proof: Aadhaar Card, Passport, Voter ID, or Driving License

Residence Proof: Aadhaar, Rent Agreement, or Utility Bill (showing residence)
