Which of the following is NOT a part of expression "Decree” as defined under Section 2(2) of Civil Procedure Code?
Verified Answer
A. Adjudication of civil court
B. Conclusive determination of rights
C. Any order of dismissal for defaults
D. Formal expression of an adjudication
Explanation:
Section 2(2) of CPC defines 'decree'. It states that a decree 'shall not include any adjudication from which an appeal lies as an appeal from an order, or any order of dismissal for default.' So, an order of dismissal for defaults is explicitly excluded from the definition of a decree.
