Collector to be deemed to be acting judicially [Repealed]
Full Text
[Collector to be deemed to be acting judicially.] Rep. by the Code of Civil Procedure (Amendment) Act, 1956 (66 of 1956), s. 7 (w.e.f. 1-1-1957).
Plain English Summary
Section 72 previously provided that a Collector executing a civil decree was deemed to be acting judicially. It was repealed by the Code of Civil Procedure (Amendment) Act, 1956.
Key Legal Elements
- Repealed Section: Repealed by s. 7 of CPC Amendment Act, 1956.
- Former Judicial Deeming Clause: Accorded judicial officer status and protections to the Collector during execution.
Practical Note
Judicial Function Reintegration: Section 72 provided a legal fiction that the administrative Collector was functioning as a judicial officer. With its repeal in 1956, execution powers remain firmly with constitutional judicial courts.
