Home Dictionary Name: breweryIntoxicating liquor
Intoxicating liquor, the word 'intoxicating liquor' is not confined to potable liquor alone but would include all liquor which contain alcohol. Liquor should not only cover alcoholic liquor which is generally used for beverage purposes wand produce intoxication but would also include liquids containing alcohol, State of U.P. v. Synthetics and Chemicals Ltd., AIR 1980 SC 614: (1980) 2 SCR 531: (1980) 2 SCC 441. [Constitution of India, List II, 7th Sch., Entry 8]See also Synthetics and Chemicals Ltd. v. State of Uttar Pradesh, (1990) 1 SCC 109.Intoxicating liquors. The sale of intoxicating liquors by retail in England and Wales is now mainly regulated by the Licensing (Consolidation) Act, 1910 (10 Edw. 7 & 1 Geo. 5, c. 24), which repealed (see Sched. VII.) the whole or part of thirteen earlier Acts. The effect of this statute is shortly as follows:-1. Grant of Licence.--Defining 'intoxicating liquor' as meaning 'spirits, wine, beer, porter, cider, perry, and sweets, and any fermented, di...

Air
Air. As to the right to the enjoyment of air free and unpolluted, see Gale on Easements, and Goddard on Easements; but the claim to air is usually made good under a claim to light and air. The nature and extent of the right to air (which is not a subject of prescription within the Prescription Act) is discussed by Fry, J., in Hall v. Lichfield Brewery Co., (1880) 49 LJ Ch 655, in which damages were given for the obstruction of air to a slaughter-house; and see Bass v. Gregory, (1890) 25 QBD 481, and Chastey v. Ackland, 1897 AC 155....
Copyright
Copyright, an incorporeal right, being the exclusive privilege of printing, reprinting, selling, and publishing is own original work which the statute law first gave to an author in 1709, by 8 Anne, c. 19, for the term of fourteen years. Whether the right exited at Common Law is a long-vexed and still undetermined question. See Jeffries v. Boosey, (1854) 4 HLC 815. There is no copyright in an illegal or immoral publication, Southey v. Sherwood, (1817) 2 Mer 435; Stockdale v. Onwhyn, (1826) 5 B&C 173.The law of copyright now depends mainly on the (English) Copyright Act,1911 (1 & 2 Geo. 5, c. 46) (July 1, 1912), and 'no person shall be entitled to copyright or any similar right in any literary dramatic, musical, or artistic work, whether published or unpublished, otherwise than under and in accordance with the provisions of this Act, or of any other statutory enactment for the time being in force' (s. 31).By sub-s. 2 of s. 1 of this Act 'copyright' is thus defined:--For the purposes of ...
Executor de son tort.
Executor de son tort. See (English) A.E. Act, 1925, ss. 28, 29, and s. 55(1)(xi.). If a stranger take upon himself to act as executor or administrator (see 14 Halsbury's L. of E., 2nd Edn., para. 282), without any just authority (as by intermeddling with the goods of the deceased, and any other transactions), he is called in Law an executor of his own wrong, de son tort, and is liable to the extent of the assets which have come to him and to all the trouble of an executorship without any of the profits or advantages; but the doing of acts of necessity or humanity, as locking up the goods or burying the corpse of the deceased, will not amount to such an intermeddling as will charge a man as executor of his own wrong. Such an one cannot bring an action himself in right of the deceased; but actions may be brought against him, 1 Wms. Exors.; and see Peters v. Leeder, (1878) 47 LJ QB 573; A.-G. v. New York Breweries Co., 1899 AC 62. As to his liability in respect of a term of years of which...
Fixtures
Fixtures. Things of an accessory character which are not something which is part of the original struc-ture, Boswell v. Crucible Steel Co., (1925) 1 KB 119, annexed to houses or lands, which become, immediately on annexation, part of the realty itself, i.e., governed by the same law which applies to the land, in conformity with the maxim quicquid plantatur solo, solo cedit. The application of this legal principle, however, is not uniform, as may be thus shown:(1) Between landlord and tenant. If the chattels be not let into the soil, they are not fixtures at all, and may be removed at will, like any other species of personal property. When the chattel is connected with the free-hold, by being let into the earth, or by being cemented or otherwise united to some erection attached to the ground, the question arises-when may the tenant remove such fixtures?The general rule as to annexations made by a tenant during the continuance of his term is the following-Whenever he has affixed anything...
Habere facias possessionem
Habere facias possessionem (that you cause to have possession), a writ that issues for a successful plaintiff in ejectment, to put him in possession of the premises recovered. If the first writ be not executed, an alias, etc., may be sued out. The officer, if necessary, may break open outer doors, in order to give possession, or he may take the posse comitatus with him if he fear violence, 1 Chit. Arch. Prac. By R.S.C. 1883, Ord. XLVII., a judgment that a party recover possession of land may be enforced by writ of possession, and where by any judgment any person therein named is directed to deliver up possession of any lands to some other person, the person prosecuting such judgment shall be entitled to sue out the writ on filing an affidavit showing service of the judgment and disobedience thereto. An unsuccessful defendant can be ordered to pay to the plaintiff his costs of obtaining this writ, Dartford Brewery Co. v. Moseley, (1906) 1 KB 462...
Inland revenue
Inland revenue. That portion (by far the largest) of the public revenue (which is derived from the taxation of home commodities and duties on property and income, houses, stamps, probates, legacies, etc., as distinguished from the portion derived by customs duties (see CUSTOMS) from imported commodities-such as foreign wine and spirits, tea, etc. It is supervised by (English) Inland Revenue Commissioners (the number of whom, now four, is not limited by statute, and the quorum of whom is two), and a large number of enactments relating to its regulation are contained in the consolidating Inland Revenue Regulation Act, 1890 (53 & 54 Vict. c. 21). By s. 39 of that Act 'inland revenue' means 'the revenue of the United Kingdom collected or imposed as stamp duties, taxes, and duties of excise.' (see that title), 'and placed under the care and management of the Inland Revenue Commissioners.' By 8 Edw. 7, c. 16, the management of excise duties were transferred to the Commissioners of Customs an...
Music
Music. For the purposes of the Copyright Act, 1911, 'copyright' includes in the case of a musical work the right to make any record, perforated roll or other contrivance by means of which the workmay be mechanically performed [s. 1(2)(d)], see Performing Right Society Ltd. v. Hammond's Bradford Brewery Co. Ltd., 1934 Ch 121 (reproduction by radio receiving set and loud-speaker); and see also s. 19 of the Act, and as to posthumous works, s. 17. Copyright is now confined to such rights as are given by statute, the common law rights being abrogated (s. 31).The (English) Musical Summary Proceedings (Copyright) Act, 1902, and the (English) Musical Copyright Act,1906, amended by the (English) Copyright Act, 1911, give additional protection to the owners of musical copyright against unauthorized sales, a defect in the Act of 1902 having been discovered in Ex parte Francis, (1903) 1 KB 275; the Act of 1906 empowers constables to arrest, without warrant, sellers of music notified to the chief o...
