Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Rajesh filed a lawsuit against his tenant, Suresh, for non-payment of rent. The court issued a decree in favor of Rajesh, ordering Suresh to pay the overdue rent amounting to ₹50,000. Suresh failed to comply with the decree, so Rajesh sought the court's help to execute the decree. Under Section 36 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908, the court's provisions for executing decrees, such as attaching Suresh's bank account or property, apply to ensure Rajesh receives the ₹50,000.

Example 2:

Meena obtained a court order against her business partner, Ravi, for misappropriation of funds. The court ordered Ravi to pay Meena ₹1,00,000 as compensation. Ravi did not make the payment within the stipulated time. Meena approached the court to execute the order. According to Section 36 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908, the same procedures used for executing decrees, like garnishing Ravi's wages or seizing his assets, are applicable to enforce the court's order and ensure Meena receives the ₹1,00,000.
