Nursingdas Rughunathdas vs Tulsiram Bin Doulatram on 26 March, 1878

JUDGMENT

1. Under the provisions of Section 268, the bonds cannot be sold till the end of six months from the date of attachment.

2. It follows that, as a Court of Small Causes cannot appoint a receiver, any bonds on which recovery will be time-barred before the date on which a sale can legally be made, cannot be made available for satisfaction of the judgment-creditor’s debt.

3. The Code on this respect appears to require amendment.
