Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Nov-20-1998

Reported in: 1999(2)ALLMR541; 2000(1)BomCR440

ORDERR.M.S. KHANDEPARKAR, J.1. This is an appeal against the judgment dated 21st March 1998 complaining that the courts below have wrongly construed the Agreement dated 1st May 1973 to be a licence when in fact upon application of legal principles it ought to have been construed as lease. It is further contended by the appellant that the legal effect of the agreement is to create a document of lease, notwithstanding its description as leave and licence and, therefore, the conclusions arrived at by the impugned judgments are based on misreading of the Agreement dated 1st May 1973 and by non-application of the correct principles of law. In support of these contentions Shri Mahesh S. Sonak, learned advocate appearing for the appellant sought to rely upon the judgment of the Apex Court in the matter of Bhusawal Borough Municipality v. Amalgamated Electricity Co. Ltd., Bhusawal and another, reported in : [1964]5SCR905 , in the matter of Capt. B.V.D' Souza v. Antonio Fausto Fernandas, report...
