Chintaman Tukaram Ahire and Others Vs. Karuna Keshv Ahire

Court: Mumbai Aurangabad

Decided on: Oct-18-2012

Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. Both sides argued the matter for final disposal. 2. The application is filed for transfer of criminal case No.9 of 2011 filed under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act 2005, by the present respondent. It is the grievance of the applicants that the complainant, wife of applicant No.4 is working in the same Court, where the case is pending and so there is apprehension to the applicants that they may not get justice. The other side has opposed the application. 3. This Court has seen the order made by the Sessions Court. The Sessions Court has observed that if the contention is accepted, it will mean that the Judge can be influenced even by a clerk. Though it is true that the Judge will not get influenced only because his staff, is involved as party to the proceeding, this circumstance needs to be considered from the view point of other side and the Judge is required to step in the shoes of the party and then think about th...

Abhishek S/O Ravishankar Agrawal Vs. Mahesh Kumar Agrawal and Others

Court: Mumbai Nagpur

Decided on: Oct-18-2012

Oral Judgment: Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. The petition is heard finally as a notice of final disposal was issued to the respondents by an order dated 6.8.2012 and the respondents are duly served with the notice. 2. In my view, the impugned order dated 22.5.2012 rejecting an application for condonation of delay in filing the appeal under Section 70 of the Bombay Public Trust Act is vulnerable for the simple reason that instead of deciding the application for condonation of delay in filing the appeal, the Joint Charity Commissioner dismissed the application on the ground that the appeal was not tenable against the order of the Assistant Charity Commissioner under section 70 of the Bombay Public Trust Act. It appears that the petitioner had challenged the order passed by the Assistant Charity Commissioner, Bhandara on 12.5.2010 in an appeal under Section 70 of the Bombay Public Trust Act. Since there was some delay in filing the appeal, an application for condonation of delay i...

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Oct-17-2012

Dr. D.Y. Chandrachud, J. In exercise of the powers conferred by Section 49(1)(ah) of the Advocates Act, 1961, the Bar Council of India framed Rule 49 under which there is a prohibition on an Advocate being a full time salaried employee of any person, government, firm, corporation or concern, so long as he or she continues to practise. Upon taking such employment, an Advocate is required to intimate that fact to the Bar Council on whose rolls the name appears. Thereupon, such a person would cease to practise as an Advocate so long as he continues in employment. An exception was engrafted into Rule 49 as it was originally framed in regard to a Law Officer of the Central Government or the Government of a State or of any public corporation or body constituted by the State who is entitled to be enrolled under the rules of the State Bar Council made under Section 28(2)(d) read with Section 24(1)(e) despite being a full time salaried employee.

Ramesh Balaji Ekhande Vs. Namdeo Ganpat Gite and Others

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Oct-17-2012

Oral Judgment: 1. Heard Mr.Thorat learned Counsel for the Appellant and Mr.Nighot for Respondent No.1. 2. A short contention of Advocate Thorat on behalf of the Appellant (Original Plaintiff No.5) is that the impugned Judgment dated 17.3.2008 passed by the District Judge 3 Nasik in Civil Appeal No. 125 of 1996 remitting the controversy back to the trial Court is perverse and shows total non-application of mind. He submits that the Appeal arises out Special Civil Suit No.57 of 1990 which has been disposed of finally on 1.2.1996 after recording of compromise. Thus, against the compromise decree Regular Civil Appeal was not maintainable. He has taken the Court through the relevant provisions to substantiate his contentions. In alternative and only to demonstrate that the controversy is now rendered infructuous and remand is only an empty formality, he has also invited attention of the Court to necessary facts. 3. Learned counsel Nighot has submitted that Respondent No.1 is one of the Plai...
