(1.) THIS revision has come up in the following circumstances.
(2.) SHRIMATI Rampyari instituted a suit against Ishwar and Hiradhar for declaration that certain sale deeds are ineffective as against her and also for partition of lands in suit. The plaintiff valued the suit at Rs. 10,000 and instituted it in the Court of Civil Judge, Class I, Raigarh.
(3.) THE defendants while resisting the suit objected to the jurisdiction of the Court alleging that the suit was under-valued. Issue number 8 was framed. The trial Court held that the value of the suit for the purposes of jurisdiction was Rs. 14,190. Since it exceeded the pecuniary limit of the trial Court's jurisdiction, it directed the plaint to be returned for presentation to proper Court.
