CPC 1908 § Order XXXII, Rule 6 — Receipt by next friend or guardian for the suit of property under decree for minor

Statutory text (English)

(1)
A next friend or guardian for the suit shall not, without the leave of the Court, receive any money or
other movable property on behalf of a minor either—
(a) by way of compromise before decree or order, or
(b) under a decree or order in favour of the minor.

(2) Where the next friend or guardian for the suit has not been appointed or declared by
competent authority to be guardian of the property of the minor, or, having been so appointed or
declared, is under any disability known to the Court to receive the money or other moveable property,
the Court shall, if it grants him leave to receive the property, require such security and give such
directions as will, in its opinion, sufficiently protect the property from waste and ensure its proper
application.
