Court: Allahabad

Reported in: AIR1932All539

Sen, J.1. We are clearly of opinion that the judgment under appeal is correct and ought to be affirmed. The property is transferred by a usufructuary mortgage in terms of Section 14, Sub-section 5, Agra Tenancy Act of 1926 and there is a stipulation in the mortgage bond that the mortgagee is to retain the full possession land the enjoyment of the mortgaged property including the trees appertaining to an exproprietary holding. The mortgagee cannot be deprived of the benefit of this stipulation. This is perfectly clear from 'the language of the last paragraph of Section 15 of the Act. We dismiss this appeal with costs....

Mohammad Abdul Jamil Vs. Manzoor Ahmad and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Dec-21-1931

Reported in: AIR1932All572

Bennet, J.1. This is a second appeal by the plaintiff against a decree of the lower appellate Court which reduced the damages of the Court of first instance from Rs. 50 to Rs. 25 for demolition of a wall, and which refused the remedy of injunction to the plaintiff. The defendants have filed a cross-objection claiming that on the findings of the lower appellate Court the plaintiff is not entitled to any damages. The findings of the lower appellate Court were that:the wall which was in dispute was the wall of the upper storey of the house. The wall of the lower storey on which the upper wall rested belongs admittedly to the defendants. The upper wall however appears to have been made by the plaintiff. Having regard however to the fact that the defendants must have had knowledge of the construction of the wall and to the absence of any protest on their part it may, I think, be inferred that the wall was built either with the implied consent or without any protest on the part of the defend...

1. The plaintiffs in this suit sued to recover a sum of money alleged to have been deposited by Musammat Sakina Begam, who was the mother of plaintiffs Nos. 1 to 8, with the defendant in the year 1921. It is alleged that two deposits were made, a sum of Rs. 2,450 deposited directly by Musammat Sakina Begam and a sum of Rs. 550 deposited by Mustafa Hussain, plaintiff No. 1, and transferred to the account of his mother. The suit was decreed for the sum of Rs. 3,000 together with interest, and the appeal was dismissed by the learned District Judge of Aligarh.2. In second appeal the only matter pressed is the point of limitation. The defendant-appellant claims that this sum should not be held to be a deposit but rather a loan and that as such it is barred by limitation. The courts below decided that the Article of the Limitation Act which applied is Article 60, and the appellant urges that rather Articles 57, 59 and 62 should beheld to apply.

Misri Lal Vs. Debi Charan

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Dec-18-1931

Reported in: AIR1932All561

Niamatullah, J.1. This is a plaintiff's appeal arising out of a suit for pre-emption brought by him for recovery of possession of the property in suit on payment of Rs. 400, which is alleged to be the market value of such property, on the allegation that Rs. 1,200, the consideration entered in the sale deed executed by defendants 2 to 7 in favour of defendant 1, does not represent the actual price and has been fictitiously mentioned to deprive the plaintiff of his right of pre-emption. The Court of first instance decreed the claim on payment of Rs. 400 on a finding that the price entered in the sale deed was not the actual price. The lower appellate Court took a contrary view on the question of the price shown in the sale deed being the actual price; and in allowing the plaintiff's claim to pre-emption it made him liable to pay the entire sum of Rs. 1,200. The only question in dispute in second appeal is whether the lower appellate Court was justified in holding that the Sensible consi...

The High Court had varied the decree of the first Court and an application for leave to appeal to their Lordships of the Privy Council was filed by Mansa Ram Murlidhar in October 1929. While that application was pending the appellants executed their own decree and got the decree of Ram Din Hazari Lal against Mansa Ram Murlidhar attached by the execution Court on 29th March 1930. The findings of the Court below do not make it clear whether Mansa Ram Murlidhar received notice or had knowledge of this attachment before 23rd May 1930. On 12th April 1930 Lachhmi Narain Girdhari Lal who had attached the decree of Ram Din Hazari Lal applied for the execution of the latter's decr...
