A decree is void only where the court lacked inherent jurisdiction and the defect is apparent on the record; a wrong exercise of jurisdiction or procedural non-compliance does not make it inexecutable. The tenant's objection amounted at most to a procedural irregularity, which had to be raised in proceedings challenging the decree and could not be used as a collateral attack in execution. The executing court was bound by the decree and could not go behind it. en-us Thu, 28 Aug 2003 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 10 Dec 2015 12:09:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171078 An eviction decree is not a nullity merely because the tenant alleges that the benefit of deposit under a successor rent law was not afforded during the suit.
