Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Dec-11-1956

Reported in: AIR1957All383

Gurtu, J. 1. The facts which give rise to thisappeal may be briefly stated as follows: 2. Om Prakash, defendant No. 2, and the plaintiff were partners. The partnership was dissolved and accounts were taken and it was agreed that the plaintiff would get all the assets and discharge all the liabilities of the partnership and that the defendant No. 2, would receive as his share a lump sum of money. 3. When the plaintiff examined the partnership accounts, he found a debt item recoverable from defendant No. 1 Bankey Lal. A suit was filed by the plaintiff against Bankey Lal defendant No. 1 and Om Prakash defendant No. 2. Against Bankey Lal, the cause of action was the debt owing to the dissolved partnership. Against Om Prakash the cause of action as stated before me now seems to be founded on the allegations that Om Prakash had not kept the account books correctly and what had been shown as a debt due to the firm from Bankey Lal was in fact not a debt due from him but was a repayment of a pa...
