Code
(1) Where it is alleged to be uncertain within the local limits of the jurisdiction of which of
two or more Courts any immovable property is situate, any one of those Courts may, if satisfied that there
is ground for the alleged uncertainty, record a statement to that effect and thereupon proceed to entertain
and dispose of any suit relating to that property, and its decree in the suit shall have the same effect as if
the property were situate within the local limits of its jurisdiction:Provided that the suit is one with respect to which the Court is competent as regards the nature and
value of the suit to exercise jurisdiction.(2) Where a statement has not been recorded under sub-section (1), and an objection is taken before an
Appellate or Revisional Court that a decree or order in a suit relating to such property was made by a
Court not having jurisdiction where the property is situate, the Appellate or Revisional Court shall not
allow the objection unless in its opinion there was, at the time of the institution of the suit, no reasonable
ground for uncertainty as to the court having jurisdiction with respect thereto and there has been a
consequent failure of justice.
