Attachment in case of decree for rent or mesne profits or other matter, amount of which to be subsequently determined
Full Text
Where a decree directs an inquiry as to rent or mesne profits or any other matter, the property of the judgment-debtor may, before the amount due from him has been ascertained, be attached, as in the case of an ordinary decree for the payment of money.
Plain English Summary
Permits pre-quantification attachment of the judgment-debtor's property in decrees directing inquiry into mesne profits or rent before the exact monetary liability is determined.
Key Legal Elements
- Pre-determination Attachment: Attachment allowed while mesne profits inquiry is still pending.
- Security Against Dissipation: Protects plaintiff against debtor transferring properties pending inquiry.
- Executed Like Money Decrees: Governed by general property attachment provisions (Rules 43/54).
Practical Note
Securing Mesne Profits Ahead of Final Decree: Under Rule 42, the decree-holder does not need to wait for the final decree ascertaining the exact quantum of mesne profits. File an application under Rule 42 immediately after the preliminary decree to attach immovable properties and freeze bank accounts.

जहां डिक्री भाटक (Rent) या अंतःकालीन लाभों (Mesne profits) या किसी अन्य विषय के बारे में जांच करने का निदेश देती है, वहां निर्णय-ऋणी से शोध्य रकम के अभिनिश्चित किए जाने से पूर्व ही उसकी संपत्ति उसी प्रकार कुर्क की जा सकेगी जैसे धन के संदाय की किसी सामान्य डिक्री की दशा में की जाती है।
