P.N. Mookerjee, J.1. This appeal is by the judgment-debtor's representatives against the respondent, who, again, is the legal representative of the original decree-holder, the original judgment-debtor and the original decree-holder having both died in the course of the present litigation.2. The decree is one for ejectment and costs. It was obtained a long time back. From the decree of the original Court, there was an appeal to the lower appellate court and, thereafter, a second appeal to this Court by the original judgment-debtor. During the pendency of that second appeal, the decree-holder first died in January 1956 and thereafter, it appears, the judgment-debtor died in or about the year 1957. The appeal, however, remained on the file of this Court until it appears to have been disposed of by an order of my learned brother, Banerjee, J., passed, on March 17, 1959, to the following effect:'It being represented by the Advocate for the appellant that the sole appellant in this appeal di...

ORDERB.N. Banerjee, J. 1. 'Chhana', according to the Rules framed under the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954, means 'the product obtained by precipitating the curd from boiling whole milk cow and buffalo by addition of lactic and oltric acids or any other suitable coagulating agent'. The question for my consideration, in this Rule, is whether 'Chhana' is 'cooked food', as in Item 7 of the Schedule to the Bengal Finance (Sales Tax) Act, 1941 and as such exempt from faxation, This identical question arose between the same parties in Civil Rule No. 1924 of 1960 (Cal). On that occasion I remanded that matter to the Commercial Tax Officer with a direction upon him to decide, on evidence, whether 'Chhana' can all be treated as 'cooked food'. After remand, the Commercial Tax Officer took evidence and came to me conclusion that 'Chhana' should not be treated as 'cooked food'. The finding of the Commercial Tax Officer are being disputed in this Rule on the two-fold ground, (1) that the...
