Consent and implied consent

Consent and implied consent, the consent as en-visaged under s. 11(4)(i) of the Kerala Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1965 would mean consent with some positive act which may lead to inference of conferring right on the tenant to sub-let the premises and mere inaction would not be sufficient to amount to implied consent on the part of the landlord, conservation, P John Chandy and Co. (P.) Ltd. v. John P. Thomas, AIR 2002 SC 2057 (2062): (2002) 5 SCC 90.

Acquiescence

Acquiescence, consent, either express or implied. A persons tacit or passive acceptance; implied consent to an act (Black's Law Dictionary). Passivity and inaction on foreign claims that according to customary international law usually call for protest to assent to pressure, or safeguard rights.

Lex loci contractus

Lex loci contractus (the law of the place of the contract). Generally speaking, the validity of a contract is decided by the law of the place where it was made. If valid there, it is, by the general law of nations (jure gentium), held valid everywhere, by the tacit or implied consent of the parties. the rule is founded not merely in the convenience, but in the necessities of nations; for otherwise it would be impracticable for them to carry on an extensive intercourse and commerce with each other. the whole system of agencies, of purchases and sales, of mutual credits, and of transfers of negotiable instruments, rests on this foundation; and the nation which should refuse to acknowledge the common principles would soon find its whole commercial intercourse reduced to a state like that in which it now exists among savage tribes.The same rule applies to the invalidity of contracts; if void or illegal by the law of the place of the contract, they are generally held void and illegal everyw...


Acquiesce

Acquiesce, means to accept tacitly or passively, to give implied consent to an act, Black Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 23.The word 'acquired' has also to be given the widest possible meaning. This would be so because of the language of the Explanation which makes sub-s. (1) applicable to acquisition of property by inheritance or devise or at a partition or in lieu of maintenance or arrears of maintenance or by gift or by a female's own skill or exertion or by purchase or prescription or in any manner whatsoever. Where at the commencement of the Act a female Hindu has a share in joint properties which are later on partitioned by metes and bounds and she gets possession of the properties allotted to her there can be no manner of doubt that she is not only possessed of that property at the time of the coming into force of the Act but has also acquired the same before its commencement [Hindu Succession Act, 1956 s. 14(1)], Badri Pershad v. Kanso Devi, AIR 1970 SC 1963 (1966): (1970) 2 SCR ...


Connivance and consent

Connivance and consent, Connivance means consent. The plea of consent is one thing: the fact that connivance means consent (assuming that it does) is quite another. Connivance may in certain situations amount to consent, which explains why the dictionaries give 'consent' as one of the meanings of the word 'connivance' Consent implies that parties are ad idem. Connivance does not necessarily imply that parties are of one mind, Charan Lal Sahu v. Giani Zail Singh, AIR 1984 SC 309 (316): (1984) 1 SCC 390. [Presidential and Vice-Presidential Elections (Amendment) Act, 1952, s. 18(1)(a)]...


Consent

Consent, an act of reason accompanied with delib-erations, the mind weighing, as in a balance, the good or evil on either side. Consent supposes three things-a physical power, a mental power, and a free and serious use of them. Hence it is that if consent be obtained by intimidation, force, meditated impositions, circumvention, surprise, or undue influence, it is to be treated as a delusion, and not as a deliberate and free act of the mind. In relation to Criminal Law, see (English) Criminal Law Amendment Acts, 1885-1922, and see AGE; ABDUCTION.The word 'consent' as used in s. 30(2) of the Sale of Goods Act means 'agreeing on the same thing in the same sense' as defined in s. 13 of the Indian Contract Act. A consent induced by false representation may not be free, but it can nevertheless be real, and ordinarily the effect of fraud or misrepresentation is to render a transaction voidable only and not void, Central National Bank Ltd. v. United Industrial Bank Ltd., AIR 1954 SC 181: (1954...


Apportionment

Apportionment, a division of a whole into parts (usually unequal) proportioned to the rights of more claimants than one. It is either (1) Apportionment in respect of time, or (2) Apportionment in respect of estate.Apportionment in respect of Time.--At Common Law there is no apportionment in respect of time. when a successor in interest succeeds just before a rent or other periodical payment falls due, he takes, at Common Law, the whole, and the executors of his predecessor take nothing (Clun's Case, 1Rep. 127). This was remedied by 11 Geo. 2, c. 19, s. 25, which apportioned rent between the representatives of a deceased tenant for life, and the person succeeding in remainder, and by 4 & 5 Wm. 4, c. 22, passed to obviate doubts which had arisen upon the earlier Act.The (English) 'Apportionment Act, 1870' (33 & 34 Vict. c. 35) now provides (but without repealing the above Acts) that all rents, annuities, and dividends, and other periodical payments in the nature of income shall, like int...


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...
