Restriction on eviction of tenant. 21. A tenant who may be decided by the Court to be entitled to compensation to be paid by any landlord shall not be compelled by process of law to quit his holding until the amount of compensation due to him has been paid or deposited in manner herein-after mentioned. A landlord shall in all cases have the option of depositing in the manner prescribed the amount of compensation due; and if at any time after the making of a claim for compensation as herein-before directed, and before finally giving up possession of his holding, a tenant shall be alleged to have done any damage to his holding, or the buildings thereon, the Court shall inquire into the same, and allow to the landlord out of the money so deposited such compensation as it may deem just, including mesne rates. In no case shall a tenant, except by special leave of the Court be entitled to receive the money so deposited until he shall have given up possession of his holding. Where compensation is awarded in respect of any holding to be paid by any landlord who is himself a tenant of such holding, the tenant to whom such compensation is awarded shall not by reason of such compensation not being paid or deposited in manner aforesaid by such landlord be entitled under this section, as against a superior landlord not liable to such compensation, to retain possession of the holding after the expiration or determination of the title thereto of the landlord by whom such compensation was so awarded to be paid as aforesaid. Court to mean Civil Bill Court or Court of Arbitration.
