In this case, after the orders were pronounced, learned Counsel for A-1 and A-2 sought leave of this Court to stay the Order passed by this Court in Criminal Appeal No. 308/1990 to enable the appellants to approach the Supreme Court by filing a Special Leave Petition. At first blush this Court was not impressed with the prayer made by the learned Counsel for the appellants. The Court felt that this Court has no power to stay its own order. However, the matter has been posted today at the request of the learned Counsel for the appellants stating that a Division Bench of this Court in similar circumstances has passed an order suspending the sentence passed on the accused for a limited period to enable the accused to prefer Special Leave Petition.

He has submitted that having regard to the provisions of Section 587 of the Companies Act that once such a development takes place, that it is not competent for any Court to either commence or continue with any legal proceedings in relation to recoveries either against the concern or persons who have contributed to it. He therefore submits that this revision is entitled to succeed in ...

Sri M. Sunnsab, Since Dead by Lrs. Vs. Rameezabi and ors.

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Jul-01-1996

Reported in: ILR1996KAR3347; 1996(6)KarLJ86

ORDERM.F. Saldanha, J.1. The only point that has been canvassed by the petitioners in this case is that there is a complete bar of limitation that precludes the Respondents who were the original plaintiffs, from executing the decree which was originally passed as early as on 12.7.1967 which assumed finality on 10.12.1975 when the Second Appeal came to be disposed of by this Court. On 4.9.1992 an application was made to the Executing Court to give effect to that decree, whereupon the Court transmitted the same to the Deputy Commissioner, Tumkur with instructions to effect a partition by metes and bounds and put the 1st plaintiff in possession of her 1/3 share in the suit schedule properties. On coming to know of this, the present petitioners moved this Court by way of the present Revision Petition. It would have been competent for the petitioners to have moved the Executing Court itself, because the only plea canvassed by them is that even if the decree had become final on 10.12.1975 th...
