Removal of attachment after satisfaction of decree
Full Text
Where—
(a) the amount decreed with costs and all charges and expenses resulting from the attachment of any property are paid into Court, or
(b) satisfaction of the decree is otherwise made through the Court or certified to the Court, or
(c) the decree is set aside or reversed,
the attachment shall be deemed to be withdrawn, and, in the case of immovable property, the withdrawal shall, if the judgment-debtor so desires, be proclaimed at his expense, and a copy of the proclamation shall be affixed in the manner prescribed by the last preceding rule.
Plain English Summary
Mandates automatic withdrawal of attachment upon full satisfaction of the decree, deposit of decretal amount and costs, or reversal/setting aside of the decree, providing for formal public proclamation of withdrawal at the debtor's expense.
Key Legal Elements
- Automatic Deemed Withdrawal: Attachment dissolves by operation of law upon full satisfaction.
- Three Dissolution Triggers: (a) Full deposit of debt + costs; (b) Certified satisfaction; (c) Decree reversed/set aside.
- Removal Proclamation: Formal drum proclamation and notice removal to clear debtor's title in revenue records.
Practical Note
Clearing Title After Satisfaction: Even though attachment is deemed withdrawn under Rule 55 once the decretal amount is deposited, the judgment-debtor's advocate should move an application requesting an express order intimating the Sub-Registrar and Revenue Authorities (Tehsildar) to cancel the encumbrance in the Jamabandi / property records.
हिंदी पाठ
जहां—
(क) डिक्रीत रकम मय खर्चे और कुर्की के सभी व्यय न्यायालय में जमा कर दिए जाते हैं, अथवा
(ख) डिक्री की तुष्टि अन्यथा न्यायालय के माध्यम से की जाती है या न्यायालय को प्रमाणित की जाती है, अथवा
(ग) डिक्री अपास्त (Set aside) या उलट (Reversed) दी जाती है,
वहां कुर्की प्रत्याहृत (Withdrawn) समझी जाएगी, और स्थावर संपत्ति की दशा में, यदि निर्णय-ऋणी ऐसी इच्छा करे, तो उसके खर्चे पर पिछले नियम में विहित रीति से उद्घोषणा कराई जाएगी और प्रति चस्पा की जाएगी।
