Decided on: Apr-11-1923

Reported in: AIR1923All577; (1923)ILR45All548

Pramada Charan Banerji and Gokul Prasad, JJ.1. This is an application for the revision of an order of the Subordinate Judge of Gorakhpur dismissing the application made by the applicants for leave to sue as paupers. The claim was one for recovery of immovable property by right of inheritance. One of the defendants disputed the title of the plaintiffs to maintain the suit and also denied that the plaintiffs were paupers. The court below took evidence upon the question of the plaintiffs' title, and after considering that evidence came to the conclusion that the plaintiffs had no right to maintain the suit. It also was of opinion that the plaintiffs' pauperism had not been established. On these grounds the application was rejected. The first contention before us is that the court in proceeding to try the question of the plaintiffs' title exercised a jurisdiction not vested in it by law. In our opinion this contention is well-founded. Order XXXIII of the first schedule to the Code of Civil...

Kausilla Kuer Vs. Sukhdei and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-11-1923

Reported in: AIR1923All579; 74Ind.Cas.761

1. This Is a clear case and we are bound to interfere in revision. The learned Judge, owing to a misunderstanding on the part of his Munsarim, has declined jurisdiction. The Munsarim seems to think that the earlier order requiring the security to be given, namely, the order made on the 6th of January, was the order under appeal and a copy of that order had been filed, but he says the copy of the subsequent order was filed against which no appeal had been brought. This is a mistake. There was a copy of the judgment in the case which led to the subsequent order of the 11th of March, filed in the Appellate Court. That judgment simply struck off the application for a certificate, because the widow had failed to give security. It is true that the appellants before the District Judge had failed to file a copy of the formal order, but as the formal order was a precise copy, so far as its operative words were concerned, of the judgment of the order which they did file, the failure mattered to ...

Jhagru and ors. Vs. Emperor

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-11-1923

Reported in: AIR1923All609; 73Ind.Cas.775

Daniels, J.1. This is a revision on behalf of ninteen persons who were tried jointly with one. Jhagru. Jhagru was given en appealable sentence and the applicant were given small sentnees of fine against which, they if had not been tried jointly with Jhagru, no appeal lay under the provisions of Section 413. The chief point raised by the revision is whether, if u person who is given a sentence which is ordinarily non-appealable is tried jointly with a person who is given a larger sentence, the former obtains a right of appeal which he would otherwise not have. Divergent views have been expressed on this subject but the latest published decisions of this Court, which are referred to by the learned judge, namely, Husain v. Emperor Khan 9 Ind. Cas. 690 : 39 A. 293 : 15 A.L.J 136 : 18 Cr. L.J. 546 and. Bhola v. Emperor 40 Ind. Cas.3320 : 39 A. 549 : 15 A.L.J 5574 : 18 Cr. L.J. 684, are against the contentions of the applicants. In the latter case Piggott, J., stated that the practice of the...
