Brammoye Dassee on Behalf of Brojo Nath Singh and anr. Vs. Kristo Mohu ...

Markby, J.1. In this casts we think the judgment of the first Court was a right judgment, and ought not to have been disturbed by the lower Appellate Court.2. It appears that there were three brothers entitled to a certain property. A decree had been obtained against two of the brothers, Shib Prosad and Bhola Nath. Their rights and interests in the property were sold, and the defendant got into possession. The widow of one of the brothers then brought a suit for declaration of her title to one-third share of the property. An issue was raised whether that share was the right and interest of the plaintiff as alleged by her, or of Shib Prosad and Bhola Nath as alleged by the defendant. There wore other parties to that suit, but that does not seem to be material. After the death of the widow, the heir of her husband brought the present suit for possession. The decree in the former suit was set up as a bar to the present suit; and an issue was raised whether or no that decree was a bar to t...

In Re: Lalla Gopee Chand and ors.

Court: Kolkata

I have enquired as to the practice, and I find that it has always been usual, when the last day falls during the period when the offices are closed, for the money to be brought in before the holidays commence.3. I am also asked to give permission that the money be deposited now. I do not think I have power to do that....

Poorno Chunder Coondoo Vs. Prosonno Coomar Sikdar and anr.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Dec-07-1876

Reported in: (1877)ILR2Cal123

Pontifex, J.1. I have very little doubt that process of execution means actual process by attachment in execution of the judgment-debtor's person or property. The case of Obhoychurn Dutt v. Mudoosudan Chowdhry 5 Wym. 172 is opposed to this: but I prefer the decision in Shib Chunder Bhadoree v. Luckhee Debia Chowdhrain 6 W.R. Mis. 51. In my opinion mere notice of execution is not sufficient process for enforcing the decree....
