ISSUE:

Whether the leave obtained had been rightly obtained or wrongly obtained is not a matter which can be agitated at the execution stage?

RULE:

The objection as to the local jurisdiction of a Court does not stand on the same footing as an objection to the competence of a Court to try a case. The competence of a Court to try a case goes to the very root of the jurisdiction and where it is lacking it is a case of inherent lack of jurisdiction.
