On the facts discussed, time spent in prior restitution proceedings under Section 144 CPC could not be excluded. The text also explains that once consolidation proceedings under the U.P. Consolidation of Holdings Act attain finality, Section 49 bars later civil or revenue suits concerning rights in the land or matters that should have been raised in consolidation. A subsequent suit for possession was therefore treated as barred by the statutory consolidation scheme. en-us Tue, 31 Jul 1984 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 12 Feb 2018 11:51:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=198791 Section 14 of the Limitation Act allows exclusion of time only where the earlier proceeding was pursued with due diligence and good faith but failed for want of jurisdiction or a similar preliminary defect; it does not apply when the earlier proceeding is decided on merits.
