On 17th September 1936 the judgment-debtor made an application to the Collector under the Encumbered Estates Act of 1934 and on 19th September 1936 he put in an application in the Court of the Munsif saying that he had made an application under the Encumbered Estates Act and asking the Court not to pay the money received from the Court of Wards to the decree-holder. This application was presumably made with a view to ask the Court to give effect to the provisions of Section 7, Encumbered Estates Act, but the Court was of opinion that, that sectio .....

The crux of the question is whether when the Collector passed an order under Section 6 of the Act in this case on 28th September 1936 the attachment of the money made by the decree-holder was in force or not. In my opinion it certainly was. It was argued that after the money was received in Court on 16th September 1936 the attachment ceased to exist and was no longer in force. I cannot accede to this argument. No doubt the attachment was completed when the money was sent by the Court of Wards to the Court, but to say ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X
