Ram Gopal Vs. Govind Das

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-18-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All196

ORDERSinha, J.1. These two are cross-cases and their facts are necessarily the same. I shall first take up Civil Revn. No. 445 of 1943. Firm Kunji Lal Ram Gopal was a firm of commission agents in Jhansi. In August 1937 Govind Das contracted to purchase 30 bales of cotton through the above firm, in Bombay. They were so purchased by Kunji Lal from a firm in Bombay named Parshotam Kunwarji. About April or May 1938 the Bombay firm made an inquiry from firm Kunji Lal Ram Gopal as to whether delivery was to be made and if so when. Firm Kunji Lal Ram Gopal, in their turn, inquired from Govind Das if he would make the necessary purchase and take the necessary delivery. The reply of Govind Das, according to firm Kunji Lal Ram Gopal, was that Govind Das was not prepared to take delivery, but that the sale could be made in the market and the gain or the loss adjusted according to the conditions of the market. This was done, with the result that firm Kunji Lal Ram Gopal suffered a loss of Rs. 753-...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-18-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All208

Malik, J.1. This is a plaintiff's appeal under Section 6A, Court-fees Act. To understand the facts of the case it will be necessary to set out a short pedigree:Kamta Prasad_________________________|_____________________| | |Sheonandan (dead) Raghunandan Jadunandan= def. 1 def. 5Ram Piare | def. 4 Madan Mohan| plff. _____|_______________________________| |Radha Kishan def. 2 Hari Kishan def. 3.2. One Beni Madho had obtained a decree for sale on the basis of a mortgage against defendants 2 to 4. In execution of the mortgage decree the property included in the mortgage, house No. 61/14 and plot No. 65/20, were put to sale on 3rd July 1941, and were purchased at auction by defendant 7, Laxmi Narain. After the auction sale but before the confirmation of the sale Madan Mohan filed this suit.

Reaz UddIn and ors. Vs. Mir Sajid HusaIn and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-18-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All224

ORDERSinha, J.1. This is a civil revision under Section 115, Civil P.C., and directed against an order of the learned District Judge of Ghazipur by which he permitted a suit to be withdrawn with liberty to bring a fresh suit.2. An application for redemption of three mortgages was made by the opposite party in the Court of the Assistant Collector, 1st class, of Ghazipur under Section 12, Agriculturists' Relief Act.3. The defence in the main was a denial of the execution of two and the bar of limitation with respect to the third.4. The learned Assistant Collector decreed the suit by his judgment of 19th September 1941.5. Against this an appeal was preferred by the defendants.6. It appears that there were certain lacunae in the plaintiffs' case which came to light in the course of the arguments in appeal and the plaintiffs, therefore, made an application to the learned Judge for permission to withdraw the suit with liberty to bring a fresh suit. He allowed this application by the followin...

Wahid UddIn Vs. Ramji Lal and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-17-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All254

Ismail, J. 1. This is an appeal from an order of the Special Judge of Meerut against a decree passed under Section 14, Encumbered Estates Act. A preliminary objection has been taken to this appeal by learned counsel for the respondent to the effect that no appeal is competent to this Court under Section 45 of the Act. We have decided to dispose of this matter as an application under Section 46. We have heard learned counsel for the appellant at some length. The sole point for consideration is whether the learned Special Judge was right in calculating interest on the amount found due under Section 14 (4) of the Act which included principal and interest. It is urged that pendente lite and future interest should be calculated only on the principal amount due from the landlord and not on the aggregate amount of principal and interest. Section 14 of the Act is self-contained and lays down the procedure to be followed by the Special Judge in the examination of claims and determination of the...

L. Radhey Shiam and anr. Vs. L. Jugal Kishore

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-14-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All223

Mohammad Ismail, J.1. This and the connected appeals arise out of five separate suits that were brought by the plaintiffs for profits under Section 230, U.P. Tenancy Act (17 of 1939), against the defendant who is the lambardar. The suits were contested on a variety of grounds. The Courts below upon a consideration of the evidence have decreed the suits. The plaintiffs have now come to this Court in appeal.2. Learned Counsel for the appellants has stressed two points. He contends that the Court below had erred in law in granting interest at the rate of only 6 1/4 per cent, per annum. He has urged that according to the correct reading of the relevant section, the plaintiffs are entitled to charge interest at the rate of 12 per cent, per annum. The suit in this case was brought with respect to arrears of years 1344 to 1346F. The suit was instituted on 9th February 1940, that is, a few days after the new Act had come into force. It is not disputed that Section 225 of Act 3 of 1926 allowed ...

Mt. Maseetunnisa Vs. Mahesh Chander and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Apr-14-1944

Reported in: AIR1944All228

Sinha, J.1. This is an appeal by defendant l, Mt. Masitunnissa, arising out of a suit for a declaration that the sale made by Mt. Renka Kuer on 28th March 1938 in her favour is not binding upon the plaintiffs. The relationship of the parties to this litigation, barring the appellant, who is a stranger purchaser, will appear from the pedigree set forth below:CHET RAM_______________________|______________________| | Khader Mal (died 15-3-1904) Tola Ram= Mt. Paran Kuer = Mt. Khushali_______|______________________________________________| | |Jamna Kuer Renka Kuer (deft. 2) Durga Kuer(deft. 3). | = Brij Mohan dead)| Lal (husband) ____________________|__________________________| | |Mahesh Chander Kailash Chander Harish Chander(plff. 1).

On 22nd May 1941 the arbitrator registered this award. On 23rd May 1941 the appellant Ch.

Samiunnissa applied that she be appointed guardian of the person of the minor Rashida Khatun, who at the time of the application in the year 1941 was a girl ten years old.
