Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Apr-05-1990

Reported in: 1990MPLJ528

ORDERS.K. Jha, C.J.1. The defendant of Civil Suit No-17-A/88 of the Court of 4th Additional Judge to the Court of District Judge, Jabalpur, is the petitioner here against the orders dated 16-1-1990 and 17-10-1989. By the impugned orders, the Court below has held that the matter with regard to remission of court fees or treating the plaintiff non-applicant as an indigent person, is a matter to be tried as an issue in the suit itself and, has, therefore, shelved the question for determination at a later date.2. The Court below has misdirected itself on a question of law and thereby refused to exercise jurisdiction vested in it by law. If it is a matter to be gone under the provisions of order XXXIII of the Code of Civil Procedure for a decision on the question as to whether the non-applicant is an indigent person or not an enquiry is a must before the suit can proceed further, it can, therefore, by no stretch of imagination, be held to be an integral part of an issue in the suit itself, ...
