HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NYAPATHY VIJAY
CRP.No.538 of 2017
O R D E R:
The present Civil Revision Petition is filed against an order dated
20.09.2016 in E.P.No.20 of 2016 in Dis.No.131/2013, whereunder the
attachment of salary of the petitioner/Judgment Debtor No.2 was
made absolute. The E.P.No.20 of 2016 was filed by the respondent
No.1 pursuant to an award passed by the Deputy Registrar of Chits/
Arbitrator, Visakhapatnam on 27.11.2014 for recovery of an amount
of Rs.2,56,983/- against judgment debtors 1 to 4 i.e. petitioner and
respondent Nos.2 to 4 herein as the petitioner is an employee of
Visakhapatnam Steel Plant. The E.P. was contested on the ground
that 12 months has not elapsed from the date of previous attachment
and that the award passed by the Deputy Registrar of Chits was an
ex-parte order and steps are being taken to set aside the said award.
The trial Court, by referring to Ramadasu Krishan Murthy v.
Katla vijayalakshmi and others1, opined that a sum of Rs.13,397/-
is attached from the salary of the judgment debtor and that the order
of attachment passed by the court at the rate of Rs.10,000/- (rupees
ten thousand only) per month is as per law and in compliance with the
provision of section 60 C.P.C. There is no stay in this Civil Revision
1997 (2) ALT 412
Petition and at this length of time, this Court does not find any merit
to interfere with the orders of the trial Court.
Hence, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. No order as to
costs. As a sequel, the miscellaneous petitions if any shall stand
dismissed.
