Damber Singh Vs. Srikrishn Dass

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-04-1909

Reported in: (1909)ILR31All445

Richards and Alston, JJ.1. The facts out of which this application in revision arises are shortly as follows: The plaintiffs instituted a suit in the Revenue Court. That court was of opinion that the suit was not cognizable by it and accordingly dismissed the suit. The plaintiff appealed to the District Judge who seems to have been of opinion that the decision of the court of first instance was correct and that the suit was not a suit cognizable by a Revenue Court. However, under the provisions of Sections 196 and 197 of the Agra Tenancy Act he made a decree in favour of the plaintiff. The plaintiff applied to the Assistant Collector of the first class for execution of the decree. The Assistant Collector refused the application. The present application in revision to us is against such refusal. The reason that the application is made by way of revision is because no appeal lies. Section 177 of the Agra Tenancy Act deals with appeals to the District Judge. That section certainly does no...

Court: Allahabad

The petition is addressed to the District Judge, Cawnpore, but there does not appear to be any order by the District Judge transferring the insolvency petition to any Court, and the first order on it is one by the Judge of the Court of Small Causes at Cawnpore, on the 21st of April 1908, ordering the petition to be registered. On the 2nd of Way 1.908, the same Judge, that is, the Small Cause Court Judge, directed notices to issue, and on the 20th of June, the petitioner was adjudicated insolvent. On the 28th of July 1908, an appeal was presented against the order of adjudication, and on the 17th August 1908, the appeal was dismissed. The grounds of appeal all dealt with the merits of the case. There was no ground of appeal complaining of any irregularity in the Court of first instance or any want of jurisdic...
