HIGH COURT AMENDMENT
ALLAHABAD.- Substitute the following for Rule 51, namely:
“51. Where any property has been attached in execution of a decree and the Court for any reason passes an order dismissing the execution application the attachment shall, in the absence of any Order passed by the Court, be deemed to subsist for a period of fifteen days after the dismissal of the application for execution and no fresh attachment of the same property shall be necessary if a fresh application for execution is made within such period of fifteen days. If no such application is made, the attachment shall cease:
Provided that in the case of movable property the attachment shall not be continued after an order dismissing the execution application has been passed unless the decree-holder has given his consent in writing and therein deposit with the Court on his behalf a sum of money sufficient to meet the expenses of the attachment during the extended period.”
