Reported in: AIR1961MP46; 1962MPLJ15

ORDERShiv Dayal, J. 1. This revision is directed against an order passed by the Trial Judge holding that the suit was bad for multifariousness.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-09-1960

Reported in: AIR1960MP388

Shiv Dayal, J.1. This second appeal arises out of an execution matter. The lower appellate court has dismissed the application for execution us barred by time.2. The short facts are that in execution ot his decree the appellant at first got some move-ables of the judgment debtor attached and then applied for attachment and sale of his house, to which the respondent objected. But the objection was overruled (execution No. 18 of 1949). The judgment debtor took an appeal against it. In. the meanwhile the house was sold. The highest bid was of the decree holder.

Shantaram Govindram Vs. State Through Police and anr.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-08-1960

Reported in: AIR1961MP1; 1961CriLJ86

Krishnan, J.1. This is a reference by the learned Single Judge to this Divisional Bench on a point of law, namely, whether under Section 520 Cr. P.C., the Sessions Court can hear an appeal from an order passed by the magistrate under Section 517 Cr. P.C., disposing of the property brought before him during the trial of a criminal case. This question has to a considerable measure, been answered in the decision of the Division Bench of this Court, reported in Nandu v. Dhasada, 1957 M.P.L.J 67, clarifying the earlier judgment of the NagpUr High Court in Ibrahim v. King Emperor, AIR 1947 Nag 33. It appears that the Madhya Pradesh judgment was not placed before the learned Single Judge. Anyway, the reference having been made, it will be convenient to deal with the questions involved.2. In a criminal case (No. 252 of 1956) before the First Class Magistrate, Kannod, started on an information by Gulabchand (opposite party No. 2) eight persons were on trial and were ultimately acquitted. The ju...

Narbadashankar Manoharlal Jaiswal Vs. Jamnabai Manoharlal and anr.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-08-1960

Reported in: AIR1961MP21; [1963]47ITR44(MP)

ORDERH.R. Krishnan, J.1. This is an application by the defendant in a suit pending before the Civil Judge Ujjain, praying that his order admitting into evidence certified copies of four documents (two by the defendant and two others by his father) filed before the Income Tax Officer should be set aside as contravening Section 54(1) Income-tax Act and Section 76 of the Evidence Act. Normally, a question like this would have been left to be considered during the appeal, if any, filed by the aggrieved party in time. But in the present case, however, the parties feel that this evidence alone might de-cide the suit, the defendant fearing of course, that once this is admitted, the suit may be decreed against him.The trial Court has followed the view taken by the Nagpur High Court in Buchibai v. Nagpur University, AIR 1946 Nag 377 which is to some extent in conflict with the one taken by the Calcutta High Court in Promatha Nath v. Nirode Chandra, AIR 1940 Cal 187 and recently followed by Patn...
