Viraraghava Aiyangar Vs. Ramaswami Aiyangar and ors.

Court: Chennai

Decided on: Apr-06-1900

Reported in: (1900)10MLJ242

This is so; but it appears that they were produced by the defendant a purchaser at a Court sale, as showing the title of the judgment-debtor whose rights he had purchased and were not objected to by the plaintiff for want of proof until after dacree went against him.

It was urged that this objection could only be taken in the Court of first appeal, and not on second appeal. We think, however, that it is an objection that can be raised in second appeal [Raghavachariar v. Rangachariar Second Appeal No. 848 of 1892 (unreported)]. As no other grounds of appeal are urged before us, we dismiss this second appeal with costs....
