CPC Section 58(2) | Re-arrest Permitted for Remaining Civil Detention Period After Partial Service : MP HC Jabalpur

The Madhya Pradesh High Court clarifies that a judgment debtor may be re-arrested under CPC Section 58(2) to serve the unexpired portion of the maximum three-month civil detention term, even after partial confinement. This upholds the execution court’s authority to complete the statutory detention period, ensuring debt recovery mechanisms remain effective without violating procedural safeguards.
