Talati, J.1. Elaborate arguments were advanced on the point as to whether this petition is required to be admitted or not. It appears that the petition is required to be admitted or not. It appears that the petitioner served notices on the company of February 27, 1982, and, thereafter, as no payment was made, a petition for winding up was filed on June 7, 1982. In that petition , on December 30, 1982, a compromise was entered into between the parties was that the sum of Rs.3,75,000 was due to the petitioner and the company agreed to pay that amount in monthly INSTALMENTS of Rs. 25,000 each and the first installment was to become due on february 16, 1983, and, thereafter, eight INSTALMENTS were to become due and payable on the 15th day of each succeeding month.

Saiyad HusaIn Saiyad Umar Vs. State of Gujarat and anr.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Oct-16-1984

Reported in: (1985)2GLR1045

P.S. Poti, C.J.1. Though many questions are sought to be raised by counsel for the petitioner after hearing him we feel that all these questions are covered by the Full Bench decision of this Court in Sarjubhaiya v. Dy. Commr. of Police XXV (1) GLR 538. Therefore, we are not called upon to decide the questions. The only other question which did not directly arise in that case and which is urged before us by counsel concerns the plea that the externment order is bad for the reason that it does not indicate independent reasons for externing the petitioner not only from the district of his activities, but also from contiguous districts. Relying upon the decision of this Court in Vrajalal v. D.M. Rajkot III GLR 809, Lalji Kanji v. V.T. Shah IV GLR 668 and Mamad Kala v. State XIV GLR 384 counsel contends that whenever an externing authority chooses to direct extemment from not only the district within which the person against whom the order is passed is seen to be active, but also contiguou...

State of Gujarat Vs. M.K. Patel and Co. and anr.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Oct-11-1984

Reported in: AIR1985Guj179; (1985)1GLR271

1. The State of Gujarat is the petitioner before me. The State wanted to enforce a Bank guarantee furnished to it by a contractor by asking the Bank to pay over the amount to the State. It was the stand of the State that the contractor had committed default and consequently the State is entitled to enforce its guarantee. When the contractor felt that the Bank is likely to pay over the amount to the State, the present suit, out of which the injunction matter has arisen, was filed by the Contractor and an injunction was sought restraining the payment of the amount by the Bank to the State Government. The plaintiff succeeded in obtaining the injunction and that is confirmed in appeal. That is challenged in this revision.2. The discretion has been exercised by both the Courts below against the State and in a revision proceeding it is not for this Court to interfere. No circumstance justifying such interference is seen in this case.3. 1 may also point out that, in law, the position taken by...

S.B. Majmudar, J.1. Rule. Mr. S.T. Mehta, learned P.P. waives service the rule for the State and Mr. Nitin Amin waives service of the rule for respondent No. 1 - original complainant. With the consent of the learned Counsel for the parties, rule is heard today. This application is filed by original accused challenging the order passed by the learned Metropolitan Magistrate, 3rd court, Ahmedabad on 21-8-1984 rejecting the applicant's request to refund the fine deposited by them pursuant to the earlier order of the learned Metropolitan Magistrate which came to be set aside in appeal by the learned Additional City Sessions Judge, 13tll court, on 9-2-1984.2. It is true that the appeal against acquittal of the present petitioners is already admitted by this Court being criminal appeal No. 982 of 1984. However, that does not mean that the order passed by the learned Additional City Sessions Judge directing fine, if paid, to be refunded to the accused is in any way suspended or get stayed at ...
