KEDAR LAL SEAL Vs. BAN LAL SEAL

JUDGEMENT

(1.) -

(2.) THIS is a defendant's appeal in a suit for contribution brought by the son of a mortgagor against the co-mortgagors.

(3.) AN order of the court was obtained sanctioning sale of a part of the mortgaged property, 20 Round Tank Lane (which belonged exclusively to the plaintiff), to the decree-holder for a sum of Rs. 1,50,000.00 . It was directed that the consideration should first be applied in payment of the claim and costs and that the decree-holder should execute a reconveyance of the rest of the mortgaged properties in favour of the mortgagors. The sanction of the court was necessary because the judgment-debtor Hari Lall (present plaintiff) was a minor.
