Inspite of the specific direction issued by this Court on 14.03.2019, the petitioner herein failed to engage a counsel'

2. We have perused the record. S.ThepetitionerhasfiledthepresentrevisionunderSectionl15 of the Code of Civil Procedure against the order dated 06'12'2004 passed in E.P.No.582 of 2004 in O.S.No. 630 ol 2003 by the learned Principal Junior Civil Judge, Kothagudem.

4. Respondent No.l had filed a suit in O.S. No. 630 of 2003 against the petitioner and respondent Nos.3 and 4 fbr recovery of ll money. The suit was decreed hotding that the petitioner and respondent Nos. 3 and 4 are jointly and severaily liable to pay the decree amount along with interest. pursuant to the said decree, respondent No.l filed an execution petition vide E.p.No. 5g2 of 2004 in o.s. No. 630 of 2003 seeking execution of the judgment and decree. The learned Principal Junior civil Judge, Kothagudem, issued an attachment order dated 06.12.2004. In the said proceedings, the petitioner is the guarantor, respondent No.3 is the loanee, and respondent No.4 is another guarantor.

5. The petitioner filed the present revision contending that the learned executing court, i.e., the principal Junior civil Judge, Kothagudem, failed to consider Rule 35 of the A.p. Agency Rules, 1924, and that it has no jurisdiction to execute the decree and judgment passed in o.S. No. 630 of 2003. [t is furrher contended that the executing court failed to consider the relevant Agency Rules and the principle laid down by the Hon'ble Apex Court, holding that the Agency Rules framed under Section 6 of the scheduled Districts Act, 1874 (sic: 1894) are applicable. Therefore, the principal Junior civil Judge, Kothagudem, had no jurisdiction to execute the said decree and judgment by enterraining E.p. No. 5g2 of 2oo4 filed by respondent No.l/decree holder. / {

\

6. There is no dispute with regard to the legal position that in Scheduled Areas, civil courts have no jurisdiction to execute decrees passed by civil courts, and that it is ttre Special Agent/Agency court which is competent to dispose of execution petitions. This principre has also been laid down by the Hon'bre Apex court in Nagarjuna Grameena Bank and others v. Medf Narayana and othersr, and in the common order dated fi.r2.zorg in c.R.p. No. 3g00 of 200r and batch.

7. It is apt to note that in the praint fired by respondent No.l in o-s. No. 630 of 2003, it is specifically naentioned that defendant No' l, the loanee, is a tribal and a resident of Laxmidevipaily, which is an agency area. Therefore, there is no dispute that defendant No.l is a tribal and a resident of Laxmidevipany, which arso fa[s within the agency area. 8' As discussed supra, despite granting sufficient opportunity, the petitioner herein failed to engage a new counsel. There is no interim order in this case. There is arso no information regarding the f( realisation of the amount covered under the decree in o,S. No. 630 of 2003, either from the petitioner or from respondent No.r. Further, there are no instructions to the effect that defendant No. r has paid the '1zor;4 scc 362

entire decretal amount or that reqpondent No.l, the decree holder, has realised the said amount.

9. This revision is of the year zoos. At the cost of repetition, os discussed supra, deqpite being granted sufficient opportunity, the petitioner failed to engage a new advocate and also failed to appear before this Court

10. In the light of the aforesaid discussion, we are not inclined to interfere with the impugned attiachment order dated 06.12.2a04 passed in E.P. No. 582 of 2004 in o.S. No. 630 of 2003 by the learned Principal Junior civil Judge, Kothagudem. Therefore, this Civil Revision Petition is liable to be dismissed. I l- Accordingly, the civil Revision petition is dismissed.There shall be no order as to costs; As a sequel, misceflaneous petitions pending, if any, shall stand closed. To, //TRUE COPY// SD/.
