Krishna Naidu And Ors. vs Rajalakshmi Ammal And Anr. on 20 July, 1982
5. A will was made leaving certain properties to a person. Some of the properties were at P and others were at L. A suit was brought at P questioning the will and seeking a declaration of title with reference to the properties at P. The suit was compromised. Under the compromise and the decree thereon, the rights of the parties both as to the properties at P as well as those at L were determined. It was held that the Court at P had jurisdiction to pass the decree under S. 19 of the Code. It was also held that though it would have been amended so as to include the properties at L the fact that the plaint was not amended did not make the decree one without jurisdiction.
