Aggrieved by the order of acquittal, the State preferred this appeal. At the outset, we may say that the appeal against respondent No. 1, Ravjibhai Jethabhai Padhiyar, who is the original accused No. 1, abates as he has already expired on 7-9-1987, that is, during pendency of this appeal. Mr. Budhbhatti, learned Advocate for the accused, has also produced xerox copy of the certificate dated 12-11-1987 as an evidence about death of respondent No. 1.

This Appeal From Order under Order 43, Rule 1(r) of the Code of Civil Procedure is filed challenging the order passed in notice of motion, Exh. 5, by the learned City Civil Judge, Ahmedabad vacating the ex-parte interim order granted earlier. Respondent No. 1 is the Gujarat State Financial Corporation which disbursed the loan of Rs. 3,40,700/- to appellant No. 2 in the year 1975 for the purpose of purchasing land, construction of building and purchase of machinery etc. after executing the necessary documents. Appellant No. 2 could not carry out the implementation of the project and suffered loss in the business. It, therefore, could not repay the loan amount to the respondent No. 1.
