Reported in: AIR1952All804

ORDERDesai, J. 1. This is an application by the Chief Inspector of Factories for revision of an order passed by the District Judge in a case under the Payment of Wages Act. In this case it is conceded that the wages of employees were to be paid by the opposite party before the 10th of the month. Actually they were paid after the 10th of the month but before an application was made by theChief Inspector under Section 15, Payment of Wages Act. Consequently on the application of the Chief Inspector under Section 15 the Magistrate ordered compensation to be paid by the opposite party and the amount ordered exceeded Rs. 300. The opposite party went up in appeal and the learned District Judge held that the Magistrate had no jurisdiction to order compensation when the amount of the wages had already been paid before the application was made.

It appears that a complaint was filed by one Suraj Bali Singh against one Lal Bachan Singh under Sections 307 and 323, Penal Code, in the Court of the aforesaid Magistrate. As the offence under Section 307, Penal Code, was not cognizable by the Panchayati Adalat, there was no illegality in filing the complaint in the Magistrate's Court.

These are two miscellaneous appeals by the defendants against two orders of remand passed by the learned Civil Judge of Bara Banki setting aside the judgments and decrees of the Munsif of Bara Banki in two cases and directing him to try the cases in the light of the instructions given by him. 2. These appeals purport to have been filed under Order 43, Rule 1 (u), Civil P. C. Before the hearing of the appeals, a preliminary objection regarding the maintainability of the appeals was taken by the learned counsel for the respondents.

Mt. Bittan Bibi and anr. Vs. Kuntu Lal and anr.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-08-1952

Reported in: AIR1952All996

Raghubar Dayal J.1. The facts of the case are fully narrated in the judgment of my brother Desai J. I agree with him that the appeal of Smt. Bittan Bibi be dismissed as she is clearly liable to pay the amount decreed against her and Kailash Nath. I differ about the appeal of Kailash Nath and agree with the finding of the Court below that Kailash Nath is liable to pay the joint decretal amount.2. The learned District Judge did not record any definite finding about Kailash Nath's being the joint borrower of the various loans or not. I, however, agree with my brother Desai J. that in view of the statement of Smt. Pratap Dei the loans were taken by Smt. Bittan Bibi alone though the actual transactions were at times through Kailash Nath or Seoti Bibi and Manno Bibi. The liability of Kailash Nath to pay the amounts borrowed by his mother depends on the effect of the letter EX. 14 written by Kailash Nath alone with the other aforesaid persons. In this letter these persons stated that they had...
