Smt. Lakshmi Kundu (Das) Vs. the State of West Bengal and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Sep-14-2010

In this writ petition mandamus has been prayed for against the respondents. From the cause title of the writ petition, it appears that some of the respondents have their office beyond the Ordinary Original Civil Jurisdiction of this Court.

This writ petition cannot, therefore, be dealt with on the Original Side. However, since this Court has the determination to hear the subject matter of this writ petition on the Appellate Side, records of this writ petition be transmitted to the computer section, Appellate Side for registering this writ petition as an Appellate Side matter. Immediately after it is so registered, the same may be placed in the Appellate Sid...

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Sep-14-2010

THE COURT : In a suit for loss and damages suffered this application has been filed for interim reliefs. The case of the petitioner is that under a sales contract dated 19th July, 2010 the petitioner was to ship iron ore fines from the port of Haldia or Gangavaram to China. The last date of shipment was 10th September, 2010. 18470 MT of the said goods was loaded at Haldia on 29th August, 2010 and a Mates Receipt issued. The vessel sailed for Gangavaram where the balance 21000 MT of the said goods was to be loaded.

Inspection was held and it was found that the hatch cover of the vessel could not be fully closed by mechanical means and that a gap of approximately 25 cm. was found. This was the reason for the increase of moisture content as rain water had entered through the gap of the hatch cover....

Angur Bala Dawn and anr. Vs. Tarak Nath Nag.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Sep-14-2010

The Court: The defense both in the judgment-debtors application for setting aside the decree and in the opposition to the decree-holders application for amendment of the decree appears to be without basis. The judgment-debtor, like the proverbial person who cites patriotism as his last excuse, claims that the decree holders have perpetrated fraud on Court and that as a result thereof the decree is vitiated and is liable to be set aside. The fraud that the judgment-debtor claims is on account of the plaintiffs in the suit not bringing a fact to the notice of the ourt that prior to the application under Chapter XIIIA of the Rules on the Original Side of this Court being filed, the subject immovable property had already been transferred. The suit was instituted on June 15, 2005. It is an admitted position that the suit property was conveyed on June 22, 2005 by the decree-holders to the persons who are now proposed to be brought in as substituted plaintiffs and decree-holders. The applicat...
