The Presidency Small Cause Courts (Bombay Amendment) Act, 1933 Complete Act

State: Central

Year: 1933

.....arc, in many particulars defective, and that though, owing to the efficient manner in which they have been worked, they have generally given satisfaction, questions have often to be discussed in them which, to use the words of a late Small Cause Court Judge, now on the Bench of the Madras High Court, are totally foreign to the people who resort to them; and some of which have only an historic interest even in England. The need of completely revising the law relating to these Courts was pointed out many years ago by Mr. Fagan and Mr. Boulnois, two of the ablest Judges who have presided in the Calcutta Small Cause Court; and in the year 1868, a Bill was drafted for this purpose by Mr. Pitt Kennedy, but further action in the matter has been, from time to Lime, postponed pending the consideration of certain proposals regarding the jurisdiction and powers of the Courts. These proposals having been fully discussed, as near an approach to unanimity regarding them as can well be hoped for has been attained, and the present Bill has accordingly been prepared to consolidate and amend the entire law. The most important change introduced by i lies in the extension of the pecuniary limit.....

.....married before 1st January 1866; secondly to declare that a married woman may sue in her own name for any property which by force of the Succession Act, or the proposed Act, is her separate property; thirdly, to relieve the husband of a wife married after the 31st December 1865, from her ante-nuptial debts; and, lastly, to declare that any person entering into a contract with a wife (otherwise than as her husband's agent), shall be entitled to sue her, and, to the extent of her separate property, to recover against her whatever he might have recovered had she been unmarried. Clause 4 (as to a wife's wages and earnings) is equivalent to the Married Women's Property Act (33 and 34 Vic., Chap. 93) section one. Clause 6 is copied from the first paragraph of section ten of that Act. It declares that any married woman may effect a policy of insurance on her own life or on her husband's life, on her own behalf, and that the amount assured shall be her separate property. As the law stands, if a wife effects such a policy (otherwise than out of her separate estate), and dies in her husband's lifetime, the husband, in the capacity of her administrator, becomes the absolute owner of the.....

Presidency Towns Insolvency Act, 1909 Complete Act

....."If this Bill be passed into law it will be necessary to repeal the 1848 Act, and this raise a question which deserves consideration. The present Act is an Act of the imperial Parliament and a vesting order made under it vests in the assignee by direct operation all the real and personal estate and effects of the insolvent in whatever part of the King's dominions they may be situate or accrue; and a discharge under the Act has effect in every part of those dominions. The Act is one of those which it is within the competency of the Legislative Council of the Governor-General to repeal, but if it be repealed and an Indian Act be substituted, it follows that these advantages must at least for the most part be abandoned, since an Act of the Indian Legislature cannot operate for this purpose outside the limits of India. In 1886 it was proposed that an Act of the Imperial Parliament should be obtained to give this authority to insolvency proceedings in India, but no such Act has as yet been passed. It is believed, however, that the advantages conferred by the Act of 1848 are of no real value, since experience has shown that in practically every case in which there are assets in both.....
