CPC 1908 § Order XXI, Rule 34 — Decree for execution of document, or endorsement of negotiable instruments

Statutory text (English)

(1)
Where a decree is for the execution of a document or for the endorsement of a negotiable instrument
and the judgment-debtor neglects or refuses to obey the decree, the decree-holder may prepare a draft
of the document or endorsement in accordance with the terms of the decree and deliver the same to the
Court.

(2) The Court shall thereupon cause the draft to be served on the judgment-debtor together with
a notice requiring his objections (if any) to be made within such time as the Court fixes in this behalf.

(3) Where the judgment-debtor objects to the draft, his objections shall be stated in writing
within such time, and the Court shall make such order approving or altering the draft, as it thinks fit.

(4) The decree-holder shall deliver to the Court a copy of the draft with such alterations (if any)
as the Court may have directed up on the proper stamp-paper if a stamp is required by the law for the
time being in force; and the Judge or such officer as may be appointed in this behalf shall execute the
documents so delivered.

(5) The execution of a document or the endorsement of a negotiable instrument under this rule
may be in the following form, namely:—
“C.D., Judge of the Court of
(or as the case may be), for A. B., in a suit by E.F. against A.B.",
and shall have the same effect as the execution of the document or the endorsement of the negotiable
instrument by the party ordered to execute or endorse the same.

(6) The Court, or such officer as it may appoint in this behalf, shall cause the document to be
registered if its registration is required by the law for the time being in force or the decree-holder
desires to have it registered, and may make such order as it thinks fit as to the payment of the expenses
of the registration.
