According to the record of answers posted, the first answer was after 20 minutes (by Qudsia Lone), the second one was after 27 minutes (by aburiaz) and the third one was after 36 minutes (by Abdul Chaudry ie it was not posted first of all).
Qudsia Lone Oct 31, 2010:
ڈگری v.s. ڈکری I don't have much legal know how, but I've only heard the term ڈگری in Urdu and not ڈکری, in legal context. It seems most likely that ڈگری is a corruption of ڈکری, but if that's the term in common usage in Pakistani courts, that would be the correct term in Urdu.
fahmed Oct 30, 2010:
I thought degree was a corruption of decree, in this instance.
Lenguamundo Oct 30, 2010:
I have been searching the word in different dictionaries. It seems that initially it was ڈکری and has been changed now to ڈگری. You can found the first one in کشاف قانونی اصطلاحات by Rasheed Ahmad Sidiqui 1987. In the recent books I can see the second one. Regarding your other concern about the posting I think we are answering at the same time without knowing the other answers. When I was replying there was no answers at all. Anyways that is not a big issue. Thanks
Naseeruddin (X) (asker) Oct 30, 2010:
Correct Spelling My dictionary says Decree = ڈگری. I found some colleagues here have mentioned ڈکری. Which is the correct one? It's pity on us that instead of agreeing to the already given answers, other colleagues are putting their views/answers. Atleast please note, JD does not mean a person who has lost his/her case in a criminal court but civil court. There can be no JDs in a criminal case barring a very few. Hence in legal language, JD cannot be termed as MUQADMA HAARNE wala as an acused may also lost his/her case but he/she will never be called JD.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks for your help. I am also agree to Qudsia that we do not need to mention the term مجموعہ while translating the Cr.P.C/C.P.C. It has been also established that the correct Urdu pronunciation of DeCree is deGree."

I'm translating the meaning given in the Wikipedia. Law experts living in Pakistan/India might know the exact equivalent Urdu term.
Example sentence:

wa'dah ho yaa keh qaul woh aisay hain naa dahind

miltaa naheen kuchh unse taqaazaa kiyay baghair

قانوناً قرض دار

I'm not sure if there's an official Urdu term for it. This is my suggestion based on the following definition:

Judgement Debtor, in English or American law, a person against whom a judgment ordering him to pay a sum of money has been obtained and remains unsatisfied.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judgement_debtor

I asked a retired Pakistani lawyer about the terms. This is what he said:
" Madyoon" is the person against whom a money decree has been passed. ( a Judgment Debtor);
"DigreeDar" is the person in whose favour a decree has been passed by a competent court irrespective whether it be a money Decree or other.
" Code of Criminal Procedure" Means " Zabitah Foujdari "
" Civil Produre Code" Means " Zabitah Dewani"

I'm still positive that (عدالتی مدیون) is the right answer
