Judgement

Appeal (No. 131 of 1924) from a decree of the Court of the Resident at Hyderabad (September 27, 1922) reversing a decree of the assistant Resident.

The suit was brought by the appellant in the Court of the Civil Judge at Secunderabad to recover from the first respondent the balance of a debt for money lent, and against the second respondent as guarantor.

The Resident, on appeal, held that the Civil Court had not jurisdiction under s. 20 (c) of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, since no part of the cause of action arose within the local limits of the Court.

The material facts appear from the judgment of the Judicial Committee.
