Headnote:(a) Civil Procedure Code, 1908 (Central Act 5 of 1908) - Sec. 146, Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 and Order 43 Rule 1 - Appeal against order passed on Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 - Scope of - It is limited to the extent of relief granted thereunder and to the extent Sec. 146 is applicable - But beyond that the appellate Court in appeal from said order can not exercise the powers which the appellate Court could exercise in pursuance of Sec. 146 in a regular appeal from decree which would be in continuation of the suit.

       The scope of this appeal, as said above, is limited only to the order impugned below an application for the temporary injunction, and to that extent only Sec. 146 of the Civil Procedure Code is applicable, but beyond that the appellate Court in Appeal From Order cannot exercise the powers, which the appellate Court could exercise in pursuance of Sec. 146 of the Civil Procedure Code in a regular appeal from the decree because that appeal would be continuation of the suit. While in case of Appeal From Order, the appellate Court will have to examine only one miscellaneous order passed by the trial Court and that Appeal From Order could not be said by any stretch of reasoning that the same in contunuation of the suit so as to exercise all powers of the trial Court by the appellate Court similar to the powers to be exercised in regular appeal because in Appeal From Order the decision of a suit as a whole is not placed and the suit is undoubtedly pending with the Trial Court and only a miscellaneous order is examined by the appellate Court.

       (b) Civil Procedure Code, 1908 (Central Act 5 of 1908) - Order 22 Rule 10 and Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 - Application to implead parties in appeal from order made on application filed under Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 - Scope of - Such application can be allowed because parties who were not joined in suit would be prejudiced and multiplicity of proceeding would start - This is so because there is no order which can be examined by the appellate Court against such proposed party and secondly unless and until final relief is claimed against any party in the suit no interim relief can be asked for.

       Unless and until a party is not a party in a suit, cannot be joined as party in Appeal From Order even the appellate Court cannot exercise the power of the trial Court under Sec. 146 of the Civil Procedure Code while dealing with the Appeals From Order beyond the scope of order which is under challenge. This is so because there is no order which can be examined by the appellate Court against such proposed party and Secondly unless and until final relief is claimed against any party in the suit, no interim relief can be asked for. In fact, there is no order at all of the trial Court as between the original plaintiffs appellants and this proposed parties, which can be examined by the appellate Court in these Appeals From Orders
