https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=194793 Under Order 39 Rule 2A CPC, attachment of the contemner's property is not a prerequisite to detention in civil prison for disobedience of an injunction. The provision is construed as giving the court independent and cumulative remedies: it may order attachment, detention, or both, depending on the facts. The rule is distinct from Order 21 Rule 32 and should not be read as making attachment a mandatory first step. Accordingly, the court may order civil detention alone where warranted, and attachment is not a condition precedent. en-us Tue, 01 Sep 1998 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 17:02:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=194793 Under Order 39 Rule 2A CPC, attachment of the contemner's property is not a prerequisite to detention in civil prison for disobedience of an injunction.
