Definition
A caveat (Latin: "beware") is a formal notice filed in court by a party warning the court not to pass any order without giving that party an opportunity to be heard. Under Section 148-A of the CPC, a caveat can be filed if the caveator has a right to appear before the court when an application may be made against their interest.
