Executing Court's power-To ascertain value of the part of the judgment­debtor's building, which fell in the saham of the plaintiff, so as to compensate him at the plaintiff's cost falls outside the power of the Executing Court and as such the order – appointing an Advocate Commissioner has been rightly set aside by the High Court Division.

The High Court Division misdirected itself in holding that the application was one under Order XXI rule 16 by which the question to be decided is whether the applicant is the person entitled to execute the decree but that stage did not reach till then.

Order XXI rule 32(i)-

Detention of judgment-debtor-The Code authorises the Court to pass an order for detention of the judgment­debtor to civil prison if he wilfully disobeys a decree for injunction. The provision obviously contemplates a valid decree. As the decree for injunction has been found to be illegal and the same has been set aside as being made in a suit barred by a statute the impugned order directing detention of the defendant in civil prison is not sustainable in law.

Execution of decree in a case where legality of executing the interest of one of the decree-holders open to question­ Assuming that decree-holder Abdul Aziz was an Indian national and his interest in the decretal properties became vested property and as such the decree to the extent of his share cannot be executed, there is no reason why the decree to the extent of the shares of other decree holders cannot be executed.

An enquiry at the instance of a third party in possession is contemplated only under Order XXI r. 100 after he was dispossessed and not before.

Bazlul Ghani vs Pioneer Bank Ltd Comilla 42 DLR 480.

 

Order XXI rules 58, 59, 60 and 61-

The executing court under such circumstances has to follow the provisions of these rules and upon investigation either to disallow the claim of the garnishee (the appellant) or to order otherwise as deemed proper. The executing Court in these circumstances has to follow the provisions of Rules 58, 59, 60 and 61 of Order XXI CPC, make investigation of the claim referred to, or any objection made to the attachment of the money in question, ask the parties to adduce evidence and upon such investigation either disallow the claim of the garnishee that the money in question was, at the time it was attached, not in its possession on account of or in trust for the judgment-debtor (14)–It was the duty of the executing Court to ask this decree-holder to establish his claim by adducing evidence that the Bangladesh Shipping Corporation was holding the money on account of or in trust of the judgment-debtor Messrs Saturn Commercial Enterprise, Singapore and also to ask the garnishee to prove his claim.

It was thus the duty of the Executing Court in this case to ask the decree-holder to establish by adducing evidence that the Bangladesh Shipping Corporation was holding the money on account of Commercial Enterprise, Singapore and also to ask the garnishee to substantiate its objection.

Thus the court is of the view that the matter would be re-heard by the executing court where the contesting parties would establish their respective claims.

Accordingly, we are of the view that the executing Court should re-hear the application made by the appellant Bangladesh Shipping Corporation on 22-5-1986 giving opportunity to the decree-holder to controvert the assertion made by the appellant Bangladesh Shipping Corporation and also to give the decree-holder as well as the alleged garnishee Bangladesh Shipping Corporation an opportunity to establish their claim.

Order XXI rules 68 and 90-

Setting aside auction sale-the High Court Division upheld the sale only on the ground that the son of defendant No. 1 being heir of the judgment-debtor contested the suit and, as such, it must be presumed the son had knowledge of the execution case when he himself was a party in the execution proceeding. High Court Division failed to consider that the decree was put into execution for realisation of decretal costs and the main question was whether the auction sale was legally held and to these material questions no judicial mind was applied. Consequently the judgment is liable to be set aside.

Abdul Kader Mondal and others vs Shamsur Rahman Chowdhury 51 DLR (AD) 253.

 

Order XXII rules 3, 4, 11 and 12-

Abate­ment of appeal-whether appeal arising from an order in an execution proceeding abates with the death of a party to the appeal-There will be abatement of an appeal arising from a suit under the provisions of rules 3 & 4 of the Order. Since rule 11 does not refer to execution case or decree holder or judgment debtor rules 3 & 4 of the Order will not apply to an appeal from an order in execution proceeding and there will be no abatement of the appeal from an order in an execution case. An appeal from an order in an execution case is nothing but the continuation of the execution case and since rules 3 & 4 of the Order do not apply to execution case as provided under rule 12 of the Order such appeal cannot abate on the failure of the appellant to bring on record the heirs of the deceased respondent within the time prescribed by law. Procedural law cannot be interpreted to frustrate the fruits of the decree or order from being enjoyed by the successful party.

Proceeding as to tenancy-Substitution-Appellants have kept alive the issue of heritability of monthly tenancy in this appeal and while disposing of the appeal the Court will take note of its latest decision on the subject in 44 DLR (AD) 1 that a monthly tenancy is heritable. The view of the High Court Division that the appellants cannot claim substitution on the basis of the case reported in 32 DLR (AD) 171 is therefore no longer sustainable.
