Mahommadalli Sahib vs Abdul Khadir Saheb on 18 August, 1927
It may be that the present question did not exactly arise for decision in Abdul Shaker Sahib v. Abdul Rahiman Sahib (1922) I.L.R. 46 M. 148 : 44 M.L.J. 107, but the question was fully considered and dealt with by both the learned Judges in that case and their view has been followed by Phillips, J., in Rama Bhatlu v. Annayya Bhatlu (1925) 49 M.L.J. 152, in which the question did arise for decision. The weight of authority, therefore, is decidedly in favour of the view that' even in the case of a decree framed like the decree in this case, which I may observe is the form which has been in vogue in such cases the Court which passed the decree has the power to enlarge the time allowed for the payment of the purchase money. There can be no doubt as to the desirability of the Court having such a power. If it has not, its power to render justice in such cases will be seriously crippled.
