SUSHANTA MONDAL vs JAGABANDHU MONDAL AND 6 ORS — 135/2025

CASE SUMMARY: 135/2025 - SUSHANTA MONDAL v. JAGABANDHU MONDAL AND 6 ORS The District Judge, Hooghly dismissed Sushanta Mondal's appeal challenging the trial court's appointment of a receiver over a disputed fish tank property. The court found that the defendants established a prima facie case for receiver appointment under Order XL Rule 1 CPC, as both parties claimed conflicting ownership interests and there existed imminent danger of loss (plaintiff allegedly caught and sold fish despite court orders). The appellate court upheld the receiver appointment, finding it justified to preserve the property pending trial resolution, particularly since the rightful owner would be determined only after evidence is heard and the defendants' conduct was free from blame.
