Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-09-1915

Reported in: (1915)ILR37All318

Henry Richard and Pramada Charan Banerji, J.1. This appeal arises out of a suit which related to property which at one time belonged to a man named Nana Narayan Rao. We do not for the moment specify the exact nature of the suit inasmuch as our decision upon a law point raised by the appellants depends to some extent upon the view we take of the nature of the suit. Nana Narayan Rao made a will in which he divided up his property between his three sons Ram Chander Rao, Vasudeva Rao and the defendant Parsotam Rao Tantia. Whilst dividing up the property he urged his family to continue to live together in an amicable and friendly way. There has been a good deal of litigation between the members of this family. In the first place a suit was brought by Ram Chander Rao, which was continued after his death in the name of his widow Janki Bai. Partition of the family property, or so much of it as had not already bean divided by the will was claimed. Madho Rao and Parsotam Rao were defendants to t...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-08-1915

Reported in: (1915)ILR37All309

Chamier and Piggott, JJ.1. The question for decision in this appeal is whether the respondents are entitled, as held by the lower appellate court, in execution of a decree on a mortgage to bring the property to sale free from a prior mortgage. The appellant mortgaged the property first to Umrao Singh and afterwards to Bhup Singh. Umrao Singh sued on his mortgage without impleading Bhup Singh and obtained a decree for sale which he transferred to the appellant's brother Bahal. Bhup Singh transferred his mortgage to the respondents who obtained a decree for sale subject to the prior mortgage. Bahal died leaving the appellant as his sole heir. The respondents have now applied for execution of their decree, and they claim to be entitled to bring the property to sale free from the prior mortgage, on the ground that, when Bahal died and the benefit of the prior mortgage passed to the appellant, that mortgage merged in the appellant's proprietary right and was extinguished. The appellant on t...
