APPEAL COMING ON FOR ADMISSION THIS

DAY, THE COURT DELIVERED THE) FOLLOWING:

'E

trial court has rejected the contention of the defendant and

had dismissed the suit. The same having been

appeal, the First Appellate Court has affirmed H

of the trial court.

3. The Counsel for theiagappellant’

contend, that the courts below;:.”n.ave erred the i’

presumption that would.’ arise””Eijr_:’–Vi1*tue of ‘the.-eippellant
being in possession of ajgireernent of sale, which
he would notggvhaiw-:._,bee::riVi tgtfunless the entire
earnest to plaintiff, and the
plaintiff, had handed over

the sale agreemfeniit; , it

iuTh:e ‘tC’oui’ase’l: would place reliance on the

3’udgn’ier’t:t. reportedliiniShivalingamma Vs. T. Ramaiah and

(5i;héf53,:’»..{ILf§ro2:($.04 KAR. 921, in support of his contention.

In said the appellant was the plaintiff who had filed

suit forvrecovery of the mortgaged loan and the defendant in

i_ th_at”_case having set~up a similar defence, as in the present

it case on hand, that he was in possession of the original deed

‘E

of mortgage, which would raise a presumption that the
mortgage amount has been returned and by virtueg.-of the

same the mortgage deed had been handed

defendant. The Counsel would submit, that the it

that case would apply on ali fours””to–.the5_’present on

hand.

5. Though the said reported judgment be an

authority for the facts:’and ofilthat case, it
cannot be said that it which ought to
be applied I In the opinion of
this arise, on account of
the of the original agreement of
sale withouti-any’endorsernent of having repaid the earnest

money, ‘that i’iit’–.lsh_ou.ld be held that the appellant had

»returi1ed«_t.he~–. entire earnest money received under the

H agreement;offsale. There is no substantial question of law

that would’ arise in the facts and circumstances of the case.

it ” 4_ Accordingly, the appeai is rejected.
