Loon Karan Sohan Lal Vs. Firm John and Co. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-12-1965

Reported in: AIR1967All308

Dhavan, J.1. I agree with the conclusions of my learned brother that the plaintiff-appellant has not established any liability on the part of the fifth defendant Sethiya and Co. I would like to add a few reasons of my own by way of supplementing those of my learned brother. Mr. Misra argued the appellant's claim against this defendant in the alternative. First he contended that Sethiya and Co. were liable in damages to the appellant for non-delivery of 152 bales of yarn to the defendant and for the refund of the price. But this liability could only arise under a contract, and the evidence does not disclose any contract between the appellant and Sethiya and Co. The contract of sale was with John and Co., not with Sethiya. The appellant cannot hold the latter liable unless he can establish privity of contract with that firm. The principle of law is so simple as to be elementary. If a person makes an agreement of purchase of goods with another paying the price in advance, and the seller d...
