Reported in: [1985]60STC210(MP)

Mansur and ors. Vs. State of M.P.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-10-1985

Reported in: 1986CriLJ57

ORDERV.D. Gyani, J.1. The petitioners in this Miscellaneous case made a grievance that in spite of an order of being released on bail for offences under Sections 307, 147, 148 and 149, IPC, they were still detained in jail at Kannod, in pursuance to an order passed by the Executive Magistrate, Hatpipliya, in Criminal Case No. 148 of 1985, under Sections 151 and 107, Cr. P. C. In fact the present petitioners had moved the Court of Sessions at Dewas, bringing all facts to the notice of the learned Sessions Judge, in Criminal Revision No. 5 of 1985.

Gopal Sahai Vs. Thakur Sahab Singh

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-09-1985

Reported in: 1986MPLJ163

ORDERT.N. Singh, J.1. Tenant's application for leave to defend was refused under the Madhya Pradesh Accommodation Control Act, 1961. He is, therefore, before me in this revision.2. On 7-3-1984, the tenant-petitioner was served with summons in terms of Sub-section (1) of Section 23-C of the aforesaid Act and within fifteen days, namely, on 15-3-1984, he did file his application, expressing his intention to defend landlord's application for eviction. The only lacuna by which he was hit by the trial Court was absence of the affidavit. The Rent Controlling Authority did not allow any opportunity to the tenant to fill up the lacuna and dismissed the application summarily on the ground that the application was not accompanied by an affidavit.3. Shri Vijay Yogi, learned Counsel, appearing for the non-petitioner-landlord, vocally submits that the provisions of Sub-section (1) of Section 23-C are mandatory. Indeed, they are so, but to what extent. The intention of the Legislature, making provis...

Mahila Lila and ors. Vs. Vimlabai and ors.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-09-1985

Reported in: AIR1986MP236; 1986MPLJ148

ORDERT.N. Singh, J. 1. Lachi Tewari, AIR 1984 SC 41 has infused life into this lis in the instant case. Counsel for the petitioners vehemently disputes this position, but I feel disinclined to agree with him. 2. On 4-1-1981, the sole-defendant died. An application was prepared and signed by the plaintiff on 4-4-1981 for substitution of the legal representatives of the deceased defendant. However, unfortunately, it could be filed in the Court by the counsel only on 9-4-1981. The short point, therefore, is, who will suffer for counsel's default? Lachi Tewari (supra) is the right and complete answer to the question. The plaintiff shall not suffer and her case shall not fail. Indeed, this view was rightly taken by the trial Court as the period of limitation was computed not from the date on which it was prepared and signed for being filed. No fault can be found with the Court in accepting the position and the impugned order is immune to challenge. Petitioner's counsel, Shri K.S. Agrawal, h...

C. C. No. 115 of 1978. However, at the time of hearing, it was considered necessary to call for a further statement of case from the Tribunal and, therefore, order dated 17th July, 1981, was passed in M. C. C. No. 115 of 1978 giving such a direction to the Tribunal which has then submitted a supplementary statement of case dated 17th August, 1982, and this has been registered as M. C. C. No. 322 of 1982.2.
