the decree is sought to be enforced. But the power of the
transferee executing court is limited and circumscribed by the
purpose for which the decree is sent to it and as is revealed by
the statutory amendment made to Sec.225 of Code of 1882 while
incorporating the said provision in Rule 7 of Order XXI of the
Code and the wordings of Secs.41 and 42 of the 1908 Code as it
is available even after the amendment of 1976.

Chogalal vs Major Trueman on 13 August, 1883
"The intention of the legislature was that
indicated by West,J in Chogalal Vs. Trueman
was made clear 25 years later by the alteration of
the terms of Sec.225 of the Code of 1882 that was
effected when O.21 R.7 of the code of 1908 was
enacted............ In the civil procedure code of
1908, in which O.21 R.7 corresponds to S.225 of
the Code of 1882, the words "or of the jurisdiction
of the Court which passed it" are omitted thus
evincing the manifest intention of the legislature
that an executing court should not be entitled to
question the jurisdiction of the Court that
C.R.P.No.525 of 2011 and O.P(C).No.3837 of 2011

passed the decree of which execution is sought.....".
Kammela Somasekhara Rao vs Kammela Seshagiri Rao on 21 July, 1959
The other decision which the learned
Senior Advocate has referred me is Kammela Somasekhara
Rao Vs. Kammela Seshagiri Rao (AIR 1960 AP 321). There,
respondent obtained decree against the appellant for recovery of
money and the respondent applied for transmission of the decree
to the District Court at Eluru where the appellant owned
properties. Appellant objected challenging validity of the decree
(in the transferor Court itself). The trial court transmitted the
C.R.P.No.525 of 2011 and O.P(C).No.3837 of 2011
-: 32 :-
decree to the District Court, Eluru. That order was challenged
before the Andra Pradesh High Court. The question raised was
whether the transferor Court was obliged to decide the objection
to the decree before it was transmitted for execution. It was held
that as a result of the combined operation of Secs.39 and 42 all
objections, whatever their nature may be, bearing on the
executability of the decree could be urged before the executing
court and Sec.39 does not compel the transferor court to decide
questions of limitation or of the like nature before transferring
the decree to another. It was held in paragraph 14 that Sec.42
of the Code confers on the executing court all the powers of the
Court, which passed the decree and that there is no restriction on
the authority of the executing court in that behalf. In other
words, they are coeval with those possessed by the Court that
passed the decree. The language of Sec.42 does not warrant
reading any limitation into the powers of the Court executing
transferred decrees.
