This is a plaintiff's appeal arising out of a suit for a declaration that the transfer of a plot by the Government of the Utter Pra-desh in favour of defendant-respondents 1 and 2 is ultra vires and void and, in the alternative, for a declaration that the plaintiff has a preferential right of taking the transfer and for an order for the transfer of the land to the plaintiff by defendant respondents 1 and 2.2.

Baboo and ors. Vs. Mt. Kirpa Dai and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-21-1950

Reported in: AIR1950All488

Agarwala, J.1. This is a defendants' appeal arising out of a suit for partition.2. The plaintiff respondent and the pro forma defendant Shrimati Tejo claimed to be the owners of a half share in the property in suit. They relied upon a previous decree in support of their claim. The defence to the suit was that the plaintiff and the pro forma defendant Shrimati Tejo had no share in the property at all and that the previous decree did not operate as res judicata.3. The trial Court upheld the defence and dismissed the suit. The lower appellate Court, however, held that, although the plaintiff and the pro forma defendant Shrimati Tejo could not prove that they had half share, the point was concluded by the previous judgment as against the defendants who were parties thereto, and, therefore, it decreed the suit.4. In this second appeal the only point urged is that the previous decree did not operate as res judicata.5. The facts relating to this matter are as follows: One Ram Sarup had a simp...

Rup Lal Vs. Ram Swarup S/O Bachan Lal and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-21-1950

Reported in: AIR1950All504

Seth, J.1. This is a defendant's appeal arising out of a suit for his ejectment from certain premises situate at Chhibramau in the District of Farrukhabad. It appears that during the pendency of the appeal before the lower appellate Court, the provisions of the U. P. (Temporary) Control of Rent and Eviction Act (in [3] of 1947), were extended to the town area of Chhibramau also. The contention of the learned counsel for the appellant is that the appellant is entitled to the benefits of the Act and, therefore, he cannot be ejected. It is submitted that this point was not urged before the lower appellate Court, because while the case was pending before that Court it was not krown that the Act has been extended to the Chhibramau town area. I have, therefore, permitted the learned counsel for the appellant to satisfy me that he is entitled to resist ejectment by reason of the aforesaid Act. The mere fact that the Act has been extended to the town area of Chhibramau will not render the suit...
