Respondent No. 1               (Died during Trial Court)      Respondent No. 2       (Died during lower Appellate Court)
All sons and daughters of Narayan Das

4.   Being the sole daughter of Ram Dulare, plaintiff became the sole lawful owner of the suit land after the death of his father. Defendant No. 1 to 5 in collusion with defendant No. 6 to 8 filed a suit in the year 1970 for declaration suit land consisting of Khasra No. 200, area 0.04 Acre, which was registered as Civil Suit No. 9-A of 1970 before the Court of Civil Judge, Class –II, Teonthar by hiding true material facts thereby not made plaintiff as a party knowingly. On the basis of Judgment and Decree defendant No. 1 to 5 against defendant No. 6 to 8 thereby mutated their name in the revenue records. Defendants No. 1 to 5 are not the real legal heirs of Ram Dulare. If plaintiff was having knowledge of the same, she could have brought the true material facts before the Court. By the misleading conduct of defendant No. 1 to 5 the Decree obtained by them does not bind the plaintiff. Plaintiff is in peaceful possession of the suit land. Copy of the plaint dated 12.11.1982 is filed herewith and marked as Annexure A-1.

5.   Defendant No. 1, 2, 4, & 5 by filing their written statement on 24.09.1990 had pleaded that suit land consisting of Khasra No. 200, area 0.04 Acre, Khasra No. 231, area 0.26 Acre, and Khasra No. 232, area 0.22 Acre, were recorded in the revenue records in the name of Ram Dulare. But these lands were not self acquired land Ram Dulare. Ram Dulare was never been cultivating the land bearing Khasra No. 201, area 0.06 Acre as a Pattedar. Land bearing Khasra No. 201, area 0.06 Acre were recorded in the name of Har Prasad, Raj Kumar & Dev Kumar as Pattedar. Defendant No. 1 to 5 and Mussamat Buti were their legal heirs. Buti sold her share in favour of defendant No. 2 vide registered sale deed dated 28.03.1987. Therefore the defendant No. 1 to 5 were became the owner of suit land. Ram Dulare expired on 01.04.1955 during the existence of the provisions of the Rewa Rajya Kanoon Malgujari and Kashtkari Adhiniyam, 1935. Therefore the plaintiff has no right to inherit the same but the brother of Ram Dulare namely Narayan Das would inherit it. Defendants No. 1 to 5 are the legal heirs of Narayan Das being his sons and daughters. When cloud was casted over the title and possession of defendant No. 1 to 5 over the suit land by defendant No. 6 to 8 a suit for declaration of title and permanent injunction was filed before the Court and the Decree was obtained. Thereafter the names of defendant No. 1 to 5 were mutated in the revenue records.

6.   Though plaintiff was not the party in the earlier suit but defendant No. 6 to 8 were pleaded to claim title through her. The pivotal issue in the previous suit was that whether defendant No. 1 to 5 are entitled to inherit the suit land or the plaintiff. The Court event went into ascertains the title of plaintiff. Plaintiff was having full knowledge of previous suit through defendant No. 6 to 8. Therefore she has no right to challenge the same after a gap of 10 years. Copy of the Written Statement dated 24.09.1990 is filed herewith and marked as Annexure A-2.

7.   The trial Court vide its Order dated 19.06.2014 was pleased to frame as many as 7 issue as described herein below :

10.                The trial Court on the basis misconception of facts and law held that on the basis name in the revenue records it cannot be presumed that Ram Dulare expired after the year 1958-59. It goes further held that under the provisions of Section 48 of Rewa Rajya Kanoon Malgujari and Kashtkari Adhiniyam, 1935 a daughter cannot inherit the property belonging her father and on the basis of registered sale deed dated 28.03.1987 Exhibit D-1 held that plaintiff is not peaceful possession of suit land by extending the benefit of Section 114 of the Evidence Act. While holding that Decree dated 09.10.1972 Exhibit P-5 passed in earlier suit may not be binding on the plaintiff for the sake of arguments but the earlier suit was not a collusive and it has not been obtained by playing fraud upon the Court. In accordance with the provisions of Article 59 of the Limitation Act a suit should have been filed within 3 years to set aside a Decree so the Order dated 10.08.1978 passed by the Sub-Divisional Officer in Appeal Case No. 79-A-6/77-78 had to be held not within time as plaintiff was party to that proceedings. Accordingly the trial court dismissed the suit with a Cost of Rs.10,000/-. Copy of the Judgment and Decree dated 12.11.2014 passed by the Court of Civil Judge, Class-II, Mr. Sanjay Kumar Bhalavi, Teonthar, District – Rewa (Madhya Pradesh) in the matter of Mrs. Suryakali V/s Sukharjua, in the file of Regular Civil Suit No. 86-A of 1982, [Filing No. 23140-300001-1982], and { CNR NO. MP -1707-000001-1982}, is filed herewith and marked as Annexure A-22.


11.                Feeling aggrieving and dissatisfied with the same, appellant/ plaintiff preferred a regular civil appeal on 23.02.2015 under the provisions of Section 96 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (No. 5 of 1908) before the lower appellate Court which resulted into the same fate. Copy of the Memo of Appeal dated 23.02.2015 is filed herewith and marked as Annexure A-23.  Certified copy of the impugned Judgment and Decree dated 15.11.2018 passed by the Court of Additional District Judge, Mr. Sunil Kumar Jain, Teonthar, District – Rewa (Madhya Pradesh) in the matter of Mrs. Suryakali V/s Sukharjua, in the file of Regular Civil Appeal No. 15-A of 2015 [Filing No. 23140-300054-2015] and {CNR No. MP1707-000047-2015} is filed herewith and marked as Annexure A-24. Hence this Second Appeal Under the provisions of Section 100 Of The Code Of Civil Procedure, 1908 (No. 5 Of 1908) on following grounds amongst the others :


Grounds Urged :

A.   The Courts below erred in law in holding that on the basis name in the revenue records it cannot be presumed that Ram Dulare expired after the year 1958-59. The Coutts below committed material illegality by holding that under the provisions of Section 48 of Rewa Rajya Kanoon Malgujari and Kashtkari Adhiniyam, 1935 a daughter cannot inherit the property belonging her father and on the basis of registered sale deed dated 28.03.1987 Exhibit D-1 held that plaintiff is not peaceful possession of suit land by extending the benefit of Section 114 of the Evidence Act.

B.   The Courts below committed grave error and irregularity in holding that Decree dated 09.10.1972 Exhibit P-5 passed in earlier suit may not be binding on the plaintiff for the sake of arguments but the earlier suit was not a collusive and it has not been obtained by playing fraud upon the Court. Further the Courts below ought not to be hold that in accordance with the provisions of Article 59 of the Limitation Act a suit should have been filed within 3 years to set aside a Decree so the Order dated 10.08.1978 passed by the Sub-Divisional Officer in Appeal Case No. 79-A-6/77-78, had to be held not within time as plaintiff was party to that proceedings.

C.   The Courts below ought not to have dismissed the suit with a Cost of Rs.10,000/-.

D.  The Courts below failed to consider that In personam is a Latin phrase meaning "directed toward a particular person". In a lawsuit in which the case is against a specific individual, that person must be served with a summons and complaint to give the court jurisdiction to try the case, and the judgment applies to that person and is called an "in personam judgment". In personam is distinguished from in rem, which applies to property or "all the world" instead of a specific person. This technical distinction is important to determine where to file a lawsuit and how to serve a defendant. In personam means that a judgment can be enforceable against the person wherever he/she is. On the other hand, if the lawsuit is to determine title to property (in rem) then the action must be filed where the property exists and is only enforceable there.


E.   The principle in regard to fraud and its effect in judicial proceedings has further been explained by the Apex Court in the matter of Hamza Haji vs State of Kerala and another reported in (2006) 7 SCC 416 the Court has held as under :
10. It is true, as observed by De Grey, C.J., in R. Vs. Duchess of Kingston that:
" 'Fraud' is an extrinsic, collateral act, which vitiates the most solemn proceedings of courts of justice. Lord Coke says it avoids all judicial acts ecclesiastical and temporal".
11. In Kerr on Fraud and Mistake, it is stated that :
"In applying this rule, it matters not whether the judgment impugned has been pronounced by an inferior or by the highest Court of judicature in the realm, but in all cases alike it is competent for every Court, whether superior or inferior, to treat as a nullity any judgment which can be clearly shown to have been obtained by manifest fraud."
12. It is also clear as indicated in Kinch Vs. Walcott that it would be in the power of a party to a decree vitiated by fraud to apply directly to the Court which pronounced it to vacate it. According to Kerr, "In order to sustain an action to impeach a judgment, actual fraud must be shown; mere constructive fraud is not, at all events after long delay, sufficient ⦠but such a judgment will not be set aside upon mere proof that the judgment was obtained by perjury." (See the Seventh Edition, Pages 416-417)
13. In Corpus Juris Secundum, Volume 49, paragraph 265, it is acknowledged that, "Courts of record or of general jurisdiction have inherent power to vacate or set aside their own judgments".
In paragraph 269, it is further stated: "Fraud or collusion in obtaining judgment is a sufficient ground for opening or vacating it, even after the term at which it was rendered, provided the fraud was extrinsic and collateral to the matter tried and not a matter actually or potentially in issue in the action.” It is also stated:
"Fraud practiced on the court is always ground for vacating the judgment, as where the court is deceived or misled as to material circumstances, or its process is abused, resulting in the rendition of a judgment which would not have been given if the whole conduct of the case had been fair".
14. In American Jurisprudence, 2nd Edition, Volume 46, paragraph 825, it is stated: "Indeed, the connection of fraud with a judgment constitutes one of the chief causes for interference by a court of equity with the operation of a judgment. The power of courts of equity in granting such relief is inherent, and frequent applications for equitable relief against judgments on this ground were made in equity before the practice of awarding new trials was introduced into the courts of common law. Where fraud is involved, it has been held, in some cases, that a remedy at law by appeal, error, or certiorari does not preclude relief in equity from the judgment. Nor, it has been said, is there any reason why a judgment obtained by fraud cannot be the subject of a direct attack by an action in equity even though the judgment has been satisfied."
15. The law in India is not different. Section 44 of the Evidence Act enables a party otherwise bound by a previous adjudication to show that it was not final or binding because it is vitiated by fraud. The provision therefore gives jurisdiction and authority to a Court to consider and decide the question whether a prior adjudication is vitiated by fraud. In Paranjpe Vs. Kanade it was held that: (ILR p.148) âœIt is always competent to any Court to vacate any judgment or order, if it be proved that such judgment or order was obtained by manifest fraud;”
16. In Lakshmi Charan Saha Vs. Nur Ali [ ILR 38 Calcutta 936], it was held that:
“The jurisdiction of the Court in trying a suit [questioning the earlier decision as being vitiated by fraud,] was not limited to an investigation merely as to whether the plaintiff was prevented from placing his case properly at the prior trial by the fraud of the defendant. The Court could and must rip up the whole matter for determining whether there had been fraud in the procurement of the decree.”€
17. In Manindra Nath Mittra Vs. Hari Mondal the Court explained the elements to be proved before a plea of a prior decision being vitiated by fraud could be upheld. The Court said: (AIR p.127) "With respect to the question as to what constitutes fraud for which a decree can be set aside, two propositions appear to be well established. The first is that although it is not permitted to show that the Court (in the former suit) was mistaken, it may be shown that it was misled, in other words, where the Court has been intentionally misled by the fraud of a party and a fraud has been committed upon the Court with the intention to procure its judgment, it will vitiate its judgment. The second is that a decree cannot be set aside merely on the ground that it has been procured by perjured evidence:”
18. The position was reiterated by the same High Court in Esmile- Ud-Din Biswas and Anr. Vs. Shajoran Nessa Bewa & Ors. [132 INDIAN CASES 897].
“It was held that it must be shown that fraud was practised in relation to the proceedings in the Court and the decree must be shown to have been procured by practising fraud of some sort, upon the Court:”
19. In Nemchand Tantia Vs. Kishinchand Chellaram (India) Ltd. [63 Calcutta Weekly Notes 740], it was held that:
“A decree can be re-opened by a new action when the court passing it had been misled by fraud, but it cannot be re-opened when the Court is simply mistaken; when the decree was passed by relying on perjured evidence, it cannot be said that the court was misled.”€
20. It is not necessary to multiply authorities on this question since the matter has come up for consideration before this Court on earlier occasions. In S.P. Chengalvaraya Naidu (Dead) by LRs. Vs. Jagannath (Dead) by LRs & Ors. [(1993) Supp. 3 SCR 422], this Court stated that, "It is the settled proposition of law that a judgment or decree obtained by playing fraud on the court is a nullity and non est in the eyes of law. Such a judgment/decree - by the first court or by the highest court - has to be treated as a nullity by every court, whether superior or inferior. It can be challenged in any court even in collateral proceedings." The Court went on to observe that the High Court in that case was totally in error when it stated that there was no legal duty cast upon the plaintiff to come to Court with a true case and prove it by true evidence. Their Lordships stated:
"The courts of law are meant for imparting justice between the parties. One who comes to the court, must come with clean hands. We are constrained to say that more often than not, process of the Court is being abused. Property grabbers, tax evaders, Bank loan dodgers, and other unscrupulous persons from all walks of life find the court process a convenient lever to retain the illegal-gains indefinitely. We have no hesitation to say that a person, whose case is based on falsehood, has no right to approach the Court. He can be summarily thrown out at any stage of the litigation".
21. In Ram Preeti Yadav Vs. U.P. Board of High School and Intermediate Education & Others [(2003) Supp. 3 SCR 352], this Court after quoting the relevant passage from Lazarus Estates Ltd. Vs. Beasley [(1956) 1 All ER 341] and after referring to S.P. Chengalvaraya Naidu (Dead) by LRs. Vs. Jagannath (Dead) by LRs & Ors. (supra) reiterated that fraud avoids all judicial acts. In State of A.P. & Anr. Vs. T. Suryachandra Rao [(2005) 6 SCC 149], this Court after referring to the earlier decisions held that suppression of a material document could also amount to a fraud on the Court. It also quoted (at SCC p.155, para 16) the observations of Lord Denning in Lazarus Estates Ltd. Vs. Beasley (supra) that : (All ER p.345 C) "No judgment of a Court, no order of a minister, can be allowed to stand if it has been obtained by fraud. Fraud unravels everything."

F.   The Supreme Court in the matter of Narmada Bachao Andolan vs. State of Madhya Pradesh reported in AIR 2011 SUPREME COURT 1989 further held that a false statement made in the pleadings intentionally to mislead the Court amounts to a criminal contempt. The Court has held as under : œ

“141. It is a settled proposition of law that a false statement made in the Court or in the pleadings, intentionally to mislead the Court and obtain a favourable order, amounts to criminal contempt, as it tends to impede the administration of justice. It adversely affects the interest of the public in the administration of justice. Every party is under a legal obligation to make truthful statements before the Court, for the reason that causing an obstruction in the due course of justice âœundermines and obstructs the very flow of the unsoiled stream of justice, which has to be kept clear and pure, and no one can be permitted to take liberties with it by soiling its purity”. (Vide: Naraindas v. Government of Madhya Pradesh & others, AIR 1974 SC 1252:(1974 Cri.LJ 924); The Advocate General, state of Bihar v. M/s. Madhya Pradesh Khair Industries & another, AIR 1980 SC 946 : (1980 Cri LJ 684); and Afzal & another v. State of Haryana & others, (1996) 7 SCC397): (AIR 1996 SC 2326 : 1996 AIR SCW 824 : 1996 Cri LJ 1679)”.

G.  The Supreme Court in the matter of Panna Lal v. Murari Lal (dead) by his legal representatives reported in AIR 1967 SC 1384 has held as under in regard to knowledge of the decree :
“The decision was followed in Batulan v. S. K. Dwivedi (1954) ILR 33, Pat 1025 at pp.1050-8 and other cases. We agree that the expression "knowledge of the decree" in art. 164 means knowledge of the particular decree which is sought to be set aside. When the summons was not duly served, limitation under art. 164 does not start running against the defendant because he has received some vague information that some decree has been passed against him. It is a question of fact in each case whether the information conveyed to the defendant is sufficient to impute to him knowledge of the decree within the meaning of art. 164. The test of the sufficiency is not what the information would mean to- a stranger, but what it meant to the defendant in the light of his previous dealings with the plaintiff and the facts and circumstances known to him. If from the information conveyed to him, the defendant has knowledge of the decree sought to be set, aside, time begins to run against him under art. 164. It is not necessary that a copy of the decree should be served on the defendant. It is sufficient that the defendant has knowledge of the material facts concerning the decree, so that he has a clear perception of the injury suffered by him and can take effective steps to set aside the decree”.
H.  That the learned Courts below have erred in questions of law as well as of facts.

I.    That the learned Courts below have not been provided an opportunity of hearing to the appellant herein. Even the averments made by her in the plaint have not been dealt with by the learned courts below.

J.    That the findings of the learned Courts below are liable to be reversed as they are based on imagination, incorrect and wrong appreciation of facts.

K.   That the Judgment of the learned Courts below is erroneous and deserves to be reversed as it is based on mere surmises and misconception of facts and law.

L.   The Judgment and Decree of the courts below is perverse, malafide and not sustainable in law.

M. Because if the order impugned Judgment and Decree, if allowed to stand, would occasion a failure of justice and cause irreparable injury to the appellant against whom it was made.

N.  Because the findings reached by the learned Courts below is vitiated due to non-consideration of material evidence and by consideration of inadmissible evidence.


SUBSTANTIAL QUESTION OF LAW

     i.        Whether in the facts and circumstances of the case the findings reached by the learned Courts below is vitiated due to non-consideration of material evidence and by consideration of inadmissible evidence ?

IN THE HIGH COURT OF MADHYA PRADESH PRINCIPAL SEAT AT JABALPUR

SECOND APPEAL NO.                       OF 2019

APPELLANT/            :                       MRS. SURYAKALI

VERSUS

RESPONDENTS/       :                       Mrs. Sukharjua

 

APPLICATION UNDER ORDER 39, RULE 1 & 2 READ WITH SECTION 151 OF THE CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE, 1908 FOR GRANT OF TEMPORARY INJUNCTION


Appellants / plaintiff named above most humbly and respectfully beg to submit as under:

1.   Appellants/Plaintiff have preferred the instant second appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 against the Judgment and Decree dated 15.11.2018 passed by the Court of Additional District Judge, Mr. Sunil Kumar Jain, Teonthar, District – Rewa (Madhya Pradesh) in the matter of Mrs. Suryakali V/s Sukharjua, in the file of Regular Civil Appeal No. 15-A of 2015 [Filing No. 23140-300054-2015] and {CNR No. MP1707-000047-2015}, arising out of Judgment and Decree dated 12.11.2014 passed by the Court of Civil Judge, Class-II, Mr. Sanjay Kumar Bhalavi, Teonthar, District – Rewa (Madhya Pradesh) in the matter of Mrs. Suryakali V/s Sukharjua, in the file of Regular Civil Suit No. 86-A of 1982, [Filing No. 23140-300001-1982], and { CNR NO. MP -1707-000001-1982}.

2.   As per the averments made in the memo of appeal, appellant has a good prima facie case in her favour and hopes to succeed in it. Appellant is in peaceful possession of the suit land and cultivating the same. If during pendency of instant appeal, respondent No. 1 is not restrained to interfere in the suit land then the appellant would suffer irreparable loss and injury. The balance of convenience too lies in her favour.

3.   It is expedient in the interest of Justice that pending final disposal of instant appeal, respondent No. 1 be restrained not to interfere in the suit land through an order of temporary injunction.

An affidavit in support of this application is being filed herewith.

PRAYER

It is therefore most humbly and respectfully prayed that during pendency of instant appeal respondent No. 1 may kindly be restrained by an order of temporary injunction restraining himself, his agents, servants to interfere in the suit land, or alternatively parties may kindly be directed to maintain status quo, in the larger interest of Justice.
