Abdul Rehman Vs. Assistant Custodian

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-09-1960

Reported in: AIR1960MP253

ORDERH.R. Krishnan, J. 1. This is an application of a person declared to be an evacuee, from the order of the Custodian, refusing to admit an application for review, on the ground that it was patently time barred. The petitioner's contention is that Rule 31 of the Evacuee Property Rules is itself ultra vires of Section 26 of the Administration of Evacuee Property Act (31 of 1950) as it stood before the amendment of 1956 (by Act No. 91 of 1956).2. Strangely enough the petitioner has not impleaded the Custodian from whose order on the petition for review he has come up to this Court. He has, however, impleaded the Assistant Custodian who passed the original order from which the petitioner had unsuccessfully appealed to the Custodian. This appellate Court's order was made on 16-2-1956. He went up in review on 4-10-1956 about seven and a half months later, though Rule 31 has provided that such review applications should he filed within thirty clays. As the rule stood originally, Section 5 ...

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-04-1960

Reported in: AIR1960MP232

H.R. Krishnan, J.1. This is an appeal by the legal representatives of one Bhima from the order of the first appellate court, allowing the appeal of the opposite party. That was from the order of the executing court allowing Bhima's representatives to execute the decree in a suit, passed by the first appellate court (District Judge, Mandleshwar) on the finding that the High Court's second appellate decree was not binding on these applicants, as the second appeal itself had abated as against Bhima, their predecessor in interest. The first appellate court's decision on this was that it could be considered only by the High Court before whom, it was alleged, that the appeal had abated, and not by the executing court which is competent only to execute the decree made finally in that litigation.2. The relevant facts, which are complicated, can be summarised thus: Many years ago, one Ghisa Sirvi purchased certain lands, the identity of which is not in dispute, in a court-auction for a sum of R...
