Fraudulently suffering decree for sum not due.

  1. Whoever fraudulently causes or suffers a decree or order to be passed against
    him at the suit of any person for a sum not due or for a larger sum than is due to such
    person or for any property or interest in property to which such person is not entitled, or
    fraudulently causes or suffers a decree or order to be executed against him after it has
    been satisfied, or for anything in respect of which it has been satisfied, shall be punished
    with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to two years, or with
    fine, or with both.

    Illustration.
    A institutes a suit against Z. Z, knowing that A is likely to obtain a decree against
    him, fraudulently suffers a judgment to pass against him for a larger amount at the suit of
    B, who has no just claim against him, in order that B, either on his own account or for the
    benefit of Z, may share in the proceeds of any sale of Z’s property which may be made
    under A’s decree. Z has committed an offence under this section.
