Nagendra Nath Dey and Pulin Behari Dey, who are the appellants before this Board, and Madan Mohan and his son, who are respondents Nos. 24 and 27 respectively. The position at that date was that some of the co-sharers were mortgagees and all the co-sharers were mortgagors. 3. In 1907, after the shares of the several co-sharers in the partition suit had been alloted to them and the receiver discharged, Madan Mohan and his son instituted the suit out of which the present appeal arises in the Court of the Subordinate Judge of Hooghly to enforce the mortgage. In this suit Madan Mohan claimed that the appellants (defendants Nos. 11 and 12) had assigned their interest in the mortgage to him. The Subordinate Judge upheld his claim, and after ta .....

The decree was drawn up on August 2, 1920, but properly dated as of June 24 It contained a declaration, in conformity with the judgment, that the appellants were entitled to payment of the above-mentioned sum of ₹ 14,615-15-3 out of the proceeds of the sale of the properties. 7. On August 27,1920, Madan Mohan presented an application to the High Court purporting to be an appeal from the order of the Subordinate Judge of .....

If the three years are to be calculated, as the respondents contend, from the date of the decree of the Subordinate Judge, viz. June 24, 1920, the application was manifestly out of time; it was within time if the critical date is that of the decree of the High .....

The second and third contentions have been the subject of much difference of opinion in India, In Mashiat-un-nissa v. Rani (1889) I.L.R. 13 All, 3, F. B. three of the Judges in the Full Court took one view, and two the other, In Gopal Chunder Manna v. Gosain Das Kalay (1898) I.L.R. 25 Cal. 591, F. B. a Calcutta Full Bench followed the Allahabad minority, though drawing a distinction between cases of joint and of several decrees. Subsequently further differences of opinion manifested themselves even in the Calcutta Court; see Christiana Sens Law v.

They are, therefore, in agreement upon this point with the Subordinate Judge, and they think that the order passed by him on August 4, 1924, was right. 16.
