No written assignment was shown, and there was no evidence of death, succession, devolution, or statutory vesting to establish a transfer by operation of law. Mere production of a copy of the decree in earlier proceedings did not amount to a transfer of the decree. The respondent was therefore neither a legal representative nor a person in whom the decree-holder's interest had vested by law, and had no locus standi to execute the decree; the executing court had no jurisdiction to issue execution in his favour. en-us Fri, 24 Feb 1933 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 12 Nov 2020 14:50:18 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=291492 Order XXI Rule 16 CPC permits execution by a decree transferee only where the decree is assigned in writing or transferred by operation of law.
