Somnath Iyer, J.1. This is a judgment-debtor's appeal from an order made by the Civil Judge overruling as many as four objections to the execution of the decree preferred by the fourth judgment-debtor. 2. The decree was a money-decree and the amount claimed in the execution application which was presented on August 1, 1960, was Rs. 13,363.22 nP. The Court of the Civil Judge, Bangalore, passed that decree and the execution application with which we are concerned in this appeal was also presented to that Court. At one stage, the decree was at the instance of the decree-holder transferred to the Court of the Subordinate Judge, Tumkur, and that order was made in Execution Case No. 17 of 1956 by the Civil Judge, Bangalore, it is obvious that the execution proceedings before the Subordinate Judge, Tumkur, did not yield anything fruitful to the decree-holder as can be seen from the certificate forwarded by the Subordinate Judge, Tumkur, to which in the proceedings of the Civil Judge.

T.K. Tukol, J. (1) The question referred to the Full Bench is whether the decisions of this Court in R.A. No. 34 of 1955 and R.A. No. 161 of 1955 lay down the law correctly?'(2) When R.A. No. 22 of 1959 which involves the question as to the apportionment of compensation between the appellants representing the landlord's interest and the respondents representing tenant's interest was argued before a Division Bench, the two decisions mentioned in the question referred to the Full Bench were relied upon by Mr. V. Krishna Murthi as laying down the correct ratio of apportionment of compensation between the landlord and the tenant and prays for a decision of the appeal on that basis. But Mr. Jagirdar for the Respondents drew the attention of the Bench which heard the appeal to a decision of the Privy Council in Rakhal Chandra v. Secretary of State, AIR 1929 PC 113 and that of the Supreme Court in Vithal Yeshwant v. Shikandarkhan, : [1963]2SCR285 which do not appear to accord with the decisio...
