IN THE HIGH COURT OF MARAS
Ramapurath Varioth Krishna
Versus
Iringaloor Taravath Kunji
Decided On : 7 February, 1893
Section 14 - Limitation Act - The plaintiff was only entitled to a deduction of the time between the institution of the suit and the disposal of the appeal against the order directing the plaint to be returned. The court to which the plaint was again presented had no power to allow any further deduction, and the suit was out of time after deducting the only time which could legally be allowed. The same view has been taken by the High Court of Calcutta.
1. The learned judge of this Court is right. Plaintiff was only entitled under Section 14 of the Limitation Act to a deduction of the time between the institution of the suit and the disposal of the appeal against the order directing the plaint to be returned. That time ended on the day the order of the appellate court was pronounced and the court to which the plaint was again presented had no power to allow any further deduction and the suit was out of time after deducting the only time which could legally be allowed. The same view has been taken by the High Court of Calcutta, see Abhoya Churn Chuckerbutty v. Gour Mohun Dutt, 24 W. R., (C. R), 26.
2. The appeal is rejected.
