Section 88 in The Goa Co-operative Societies Act, 2001
88. Attachment before award and interlocutory orders.
(1)Where a dispute has been referred to the Registrar or his nominee or board of nominees under section 86, or under section 95, the Registrar or his nominee or board of nominees, if satisfied on enquiry or otherwise that party to such dispute with intent to defeat, delay or obstruct the execution of any award or carrying out of any order that may be made,-(a)is about to dispose of whole or any part of his property, or(b)is about to remove the whole or any part of his property from the jurisdiction of the Registrar, may, unless adequate security is furnished, direct conditional attachment of the said property, and such attachment shall have the same effect as if made by a competent Civil Court.(2)Where the Registrar, his nominee or board of nominees direct attachment of property under the foregoing sub-section, he shall issue a notice calling upon the person whose property is so attached to furnish security which he thinks adequate within a specified period and if the person fails to provide the security so demanded, the Registrar or his nominee or board of nominees may confirm the order and, after the decision in the dispute or the completion of the proceedings referred to in the foregoing sub-section, may direct the disposal of the property so attached towards the claim if awarded.(3)Attachment made under this section shall not affect the rights, subsisting prior to the attachment of the property, of person not party to the proceedings in connection with which the attachment is made, or bar any person holding a decree against the person whose property is so attached from applying for the sale of the property under attachment in execution of such decree.(4)The Registrar, his nominee or board of nominees, as the case may be, may, in order to prevent the ends of justice being defeated, make such interlocutory orders pending the decision in a dispute referred to in sub-section (1) as may appear to be just and convenient.
