The Supreme Court addressed the issue of limitation in the context of execution of a final decree for partition under Article 136 of the Limitation Act. The Court held that the execution petition filed by the 6th defendant was barred by limitation as it was filed beyond 12 years from the date of the final decree. The Court affirmed the rejection of the execution application, emphasizing the importance of adhering to statutory time limits for executing decrees.
