Section 9 of the Civil Procedure Code (CPC) grants civil courts the authority to hear all "suits of a civil nature," unless their jurisdiction is "expressly or impliedly barred" by law. This section ensures that individuals can seek remedies for civil rights violations, such as disputes over property or contracts, provided no other law or special tribunal has been designated to handle the case.
