Court : Allahabad

Reported in : AIR1954All728

..... words, 'the high court of judicature at allahabad' are used in the act they may be interpreted to refer to the new high court but it is quite a different thing to say that whatever the old high court was required to do has to be done over again by the new high court as the result of this interpretation and clause 17 (c).the provisions of the act which require the high courts to which, it applies, ..... 'subject to any provision that may be made on or after the appointed day with respect to the new high court by any legislature or authority having power to make such provision' (see clause 18).as the amendment act has been held to be 'ultra vires' and as no other provision has been made by any legislature or authority having power to make such provision, the amalgamation order .....

Savitri Devi Vs. Rajul Devi and ors.

Court : Allahabad

Reported in : AIR1961All245

..... act were 'any judgment, decree or final order', and it was argued that the absence of the qualifying word 'final' before the word 'judgment' and its removal from the governing position occupied by it in clause 39, had the effect of enlarging the scope of judgments which could be appealed against so as to include not only final orders but also preliminary or interlocutory judgments within the purview of section 205(1) of the ..... 'decision' of the lower court by which certainly, an interlocutory order of that court is not meant, this appears to me to be another indication that orders, not terminating the suit or proceeding, are not contemplated by clauses (a) and (b) of article 133(1) and that by the use of the words 'judgment, decree or final order', nothing more than 'decree or final order' has been included.'

Zamir Qasim and ors. Vs. Emperor

Court : Allahabad

Reported in : AIR1944All137

..... it is needless to observe that an interpretation of a clause in a statute that is productive of such confusion and inconvenience cannot, in the absence of compelling phraseology, be ..... court can, in an appeal from a conviction, alter the finding of the lower court and find the appellant guilty of any offence of which he may have been acquitted by that court.it is permissible to observe that this interpretation of the scope of section 423(1)(b) is based upon the assumption that the words 'alter the finding' are words of unrestricted scope and not upon an analysis of the language of the statute in its context. ..... if it were intended that the word 'alter' should not include a reversal of an acquittal in the sense in which it is used in the illustration above, nothing was easier than for the legislature to have inserted a clause in section 423 similar to clause (4) in section 439.secondly, the result of any such reading would lead to such remarkable result that i doubt if the legislature would ever have contemplated any such reading at all.thirdly, it seems to me that the ..... 19 can furnish no clue to the construction of section 423, which defines the powers of appellate courts and, in particular, those provisions can be no guide to the interpretation of the words 'alter the finding,' as a trial court records either a finding of conviction or of acquittal and is not concerned with the alteration of one finding into ..... whole question turns upon the true interpretation of this sub-clause. .....
