Jhamman Lal Vs. Parma Nand

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Sep-08-1950

Reported in: AIR1951All451

Seth, J.1. No vakalatnama in the form ordinarily used was filed along with this memorandum of appeal when it was presented. A post card requesting Mr. Shyam Behari Lal Gaur, the learned counsel who presented the memorandum of appeal, was stitched to a sheet of water mark paper on which court-fee labels of Rs. 3-12-0 were pasted. The question for consideration is, whether the post card stitched to the aforesaid sheet of paper confers sufficient authority on Mr. Gaur to present this appeal.2. Order 3, Rule 4, Civil P. C. provides that : 'No pleader shall act for any person in any Court, unless he has been appointed for the purpose by such person by a document in writing signed by such person. . . . .'3. The post card filed in this case is such a document. The office reports that the post card does not give full description of the appeal. In my opinion, although the description is not full, it sufficiently complies with the requirements of the rule.4. Section 4, Court-fees Act, lays down ...

Court: Allahabad

Sapru, J.1. These are eight appeals brought by the defendant vendees and they arise out of suits which were brought by the plaintiff-respondent for pre-empting eight sales of specific plots of land situate in village Gangoh, mahal Mazbata. They were tried together and are governed by the same judgment of the trial Court as also of the lower appellate Court It is, therefore, convenient to dispose of them by one judgment.2. In order to decide these appeals, it is necessary to understand exactly what the nature of the plaintiff's case was. shortly put, the position taken up by the plaintiff, who is the respondent in these appeals was that he was a co-sharer in another khewat in the same mahal and that under a custom recorded in the wajib-ul-arz relating to this village he was entitled to pre-empt the property in suit as against the defendants who were not co-sharers in the village at all. It is important to appreciate that the plaintiff has based his case neither upon the Agra Pre-emption...

The plaintiff claimed that she was the donee of the house from her husband Ammar Singh under a deed of gift, dated 25-2-1929, and, as such, entitled to recover possession of it from the defendants who, though they held under colour of an auction-purchase of it by Shahr Banoo, in execution of a mortgage decree obtained by her against Ammar Singh had in fact no right to hold it, since neither the mortgage nor the decree covered the house.
