1.

The appellants made an application in the insolvency of A.S. Mahomad Oosman Sahib and Co. and asked for a declaration that certain goods,

which had been seized by the Official Assignee after adjudication, were their property- and not the property of the insolvents. This application was

dismissed on the merits. The appellant then brought a suit against the Official Assignee for the declaration which he had asked for in his application

in the insolvency. No authority has been cited in support of the contention that such a suit will lie. In our opinion it will not.
