Shiv Dutt Jadiya vs Ganga Devi on 20 February, 2002
Decision dt: 30/07/2012
7/9
justification for the non-depositing of rent after restoration of appeal
on 01.02.2003. The defendants did not deposit the rent for a long
period of nine years i.e. from 01.02.2003 to October, 2011. The
tenancy in question was monthly and on account of monthly default,
much more than, six months' default occurred during the pendency
of the first appeal. Furthermore, there was no question of giving any
further opportunity since at the relevant point of time, the judgment of
the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Shiv Dutt Jadiya (supra) had
already been pronounced on 20.02.2002. The observations of
Hon'ble Supreme Court in para 9, quoted above, was limited to that
particular case only and it is not a judgment in rem to that extent of
observations.
