Necessaries
Necessaries, a relative term, not strictly limited to such things as are absolutely requisite for support and subsistence, but to be construed liberally, and varying with the state and degree, the rank, fortune, and age of the person to whom they are supplied, Wharton v. Mackenzie, (1845) 5 QB 606. It has often been held that an infant is bound to pay a reasonable price for such necessary things as relate to his maintenance and education--as food, lodging, apparel, medical attendance, schooling and instruction--unless credit be given solely to the parent, which is presumed to be the fact it if appears that the infant was placed at school or is supported by him: see Co. Litt. 172 a; Ryder v. Wombwell, (1868) LR 4 Ex. 32; Barnes v. Toye, (1884) 13 QBD 410; Roberts v. Gray, (1913)1 KB 520; and INFANT.Where 'necessaries,' that is, goods suitable to the condition in life' of an infant, 'and to his actual requirements at the time of the sale and delivery,' 'are sold and delivered to an infan...

Jurisdiction, is a verbal coat of many colours. Jurisdiction originally seems to have had the meaning which Lord Reid ascribed to it in Anisminic Ltd. v. Foreign Compensation Commission, (1969) 2 AC 147, namely, the entitlement 'to enter upon the enquiry in question, M.L. Sethi v. R.P. Kapur, (1972) 2 SCC 427: (1973) 1 SCR 697.Jurisdiction, legal authority; extent of power; declaration of the law. Jurisdiction may be limited either locally, as that of a County Court, or personally, as where a Court has a quorum, or as to amount, or as to the character of the questions to be determined.By 'jurisdiction' is meant the extent of the power which is conferred upon the court by its constitu-tion to try a proceedings, Raja Soap Factory v. S.P. Shantharaj, AIR 1965 SC 1449 (1451): (1965) 2 SCR 800.The word 'jurisdiction' is a verbal coat of many colours. Jurisdiction originally means the entitle-ment 'to enter upon the enquiry in question'. If there was an entitlement to enter upon an enquiry, ...
Notice to quit
Notice to quit. Where there is a tenancy from year to year subsisting, it can only be put an end to by notice to quit, which may be given by either party, and must be given one half-year previously to the expiration of the current year of tenancy, so as to expire at the same period of the year in which the tenant entered upon the premises. This rule is to be invariably followed in all cases, except where there is some special agreement between the parties to a different effect, or where a particular local custom intervenes, or where the (English) Agricultural Holdings Act, 1923, applies, in which case, by s. 25 of that Act, a notice must be given to terminate the tenancy twelve months from the end of the then current year of the tenancy.Where the term of a lease is to end on a precise day, there is no occasion for a notice to quit previously to bringing an action of ejectment because both parties are equally apprised of the termination of the term. If a tenant continue in possession by...
