The application was incompetent as it was brought under provisions (Order XXXIX Rule 1 and 2 CPC) that do not empower the court to grant interim orders or stay of execution in probate matters. Additionally, the affidavit was defective for lack of the deponent's signature in the jurat, leaving the application without a valid supporting affidavit.
