Section 100A of the Civil Procedure Code

Section 100A of the CPC prohibits a third appeal to a civil suit when the parties approach the High Court. The recourse to a third appeal is accessed to through Letters Patent Appeal of a High Court which provides for appeal to a division bench against the Order/decree of a single judge. 

Initially the section was applicable to writ proceedings also where an appeal against the Order of a single judge to a division bench was prohibited, however by a later amendment the section was amended to exclude writ proceedings.
