Jahir Ussain (appellant) challenged an order dated 18.12.2025 by the II Additional District and Sessions Judge, Thanjavur, in I.P. No. 4 of 2016. In the original I.P. petition, respondents 1 to 9 (creditors) sought to declare Jahir Ussain and respondents 10 to 14 as insolvent persons. The lower court allowed the petition, declared respondents 1 to 6 in the I.P. as insolvents, and directed their properties to be sold for repayment. The appeal argues that the creditor's petition was not maintainable as no "act of insolvency" under Section 6 of the Provincial Insolvency Act, 1920, was committed.
Jahir Ussain filed a Civil Miscellaneous Appeal (CMA(MD) No. 1277 of 2026) challenging an order dated 18.12.2025.
The impugned order was passed by the II Additional District and Sessions Judge, Thanjavur, in I.P. No. 4 of 2016.
