(1) SA. 532.1989 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD SECOND APPEAL NO. 532 OF 1989 Kalabai d/o Ramrao Jadhav .. Appellant VERSUS Narayan S/o Dharmaya Padamshali and anr. .. Respondents Mr. Satyajit S. Bora, Advocate for the appellant None present for the respondents though served CORAM : A.V. NIRGUDE, J. DATED : 6TH JANUARY, 2010 ORAL ORDER:- 1] Shri S.S. Bora learned Advocate appearing for the appellant fairly conceded that this appeal could not have been admitted even in 1989 for it was arising from the suit for recovery of money not exceeding Rs.1000/-. He referred to section 102 of Code of Civil Procedure in support of his contention. Having perused the said section, I found that prior to 1977, section 102 of the Code of Civil Procedure read as under:- Section 102: No second appeal shall lie from any decree when the subject matter of the original suit is for recovery of money not exceeding Rs.1000/-. It is seen that in 1977, this provision was amended and the amount was increased to Rs.3000/- and (2) SA. 532.1989 lastly, in 2002 the amount was increased to Rs.25,000/-. 2] The record shows that this appeal was filed in 1989 and it was admitted on 20.12.1989. In view of the fact that the original suit was a suit for recovery of Rs.360/- towards arrears of rent, Second Appeal was not maintainable. In view of this, the Appeal cannot be entertained further and I dismiss it without considering the merits. Second Appeal stands dismissed. No order as to costs. Sd/- (A.V. NIRGUDE, J.) arp
