This objection was filed on 25th November 1976. The objection was upheld by the executing Court by order dated 8th April 1977 and the execution application was dismissed.

The appellant then filed this second appeal and relied upon a single Bench decision in Ratanlal v. Hanuman Singh S. A. No. 54 of 1978, D/- 6-4-1978 in support of the maintainability of his appeal against the order dismissing his application for execution.

This is how the appeal has come up for hearing before us.
