<h1>High Court Overturns Receiver Appointment Due to Lack of Evidence; Defendant to Submit Estate Asset Account.</h1> The HC overturned the Subordinate Judge's decision to appoint receivers for an estate, citing insufficient evidence of waste or fraudulent conduct by the ... - Issues: Appointment of a receiver for the estate, justification for the appointment based on waste and fraudulent design, assets involved in the estate including immovable property, movables, outstandings, deposits, and business, findings of the Subordinate Judge, principles of appointing a receiver for movable property, justification for the appointment of a receiver for a limited owner, inconsistency in the findings of the Subordinate Judge.Analysis:The case involved an appeal by the defendant against the decree in a suit where the plaintiffs, as presumptive reversioners, sought the appointment of a receiver for the estate of their deceased relative, alleging waste and fraudulent activities by the defendant. The Subordinate Judge found no proof of waste but justified the appointment of a receiver to safeguard the reversioners' interests based on the nature of the assets involved in the estate.The estate comprised immovable property, movables, outstandings, deposits, and a business. The plaintiffs focused on the appointment of a receiver for movables, outstandings, and the business. The Subordinate Judge, despite finding no evidence of fraudulent conduct by the defendant, appointed her as the receiver for movables and outstandings, and another individual as the receiver for the business.However, the High Court disagreed with the Subordinate Judge's decision. They noted that the appointment of a receiver was not warranted as there was no evidence to suggest that the defendant would not administer the movable property in accordance with the law. The High Court emphasized the need for proof of conduct raising reasonable apprehension to justify the appointment of a receiver for a limited owner.The High Court highlighted that the mere presence of movable property in the estate does not automatically necessitate the appointment of a receiver. They found the Subordinate Judge's reasoning inconsistent, as he had acknowledged the lack of proof of waste or fraud by the defendant but still ordered the appointment of receivers. Consequently, the High Court allowed the appeal, setting aside the receiver appointments while upholding the directive for the defendant to submit a statement of account for the assets. The High Court dismissed the suit with minor conditions imposed on the defendant, emphasizing the lack of justification for the receiver appointments.
