Searches
Searches, an essential feature in the acquisition of land sine registration under the (English) Land Charges Act, 1925, in the land or local registries of any incumbrance which is required to be registered under that Act is notice (q.v.) to the purchaser and all persons connected with the land affected [see s. 198, (English) Law of Property Act, 1925, and see (English) LAND CHARGES]. Searches are necessary, not only in the Land Registry, but at the office of the local authority for local land charges. Searches may be made personally in each of the registers under the (English) Land Charges Act, 1925, but the usual practice is to apply for and obtain an official certificate of search at the Land Registry, which covers all the registers there, viz.: (1) pending ss. or lis pendens; (2) writs and orders affecting land, such as writs of execution or orders appointing a receiver, bankruptcy petitions and receiving orders; (3) deeds of arrangement; and (4) land charges under s. 10 of the (Eng...
Search and seizure
Search and seizure, a 'search and seizure' is only temporary interference with the right to hold the property searched and the articles seized. A power of search and seizure is in any system of jurisprudence an overriding power of the State for the protection of social security and that power is necessarily regulated by law, M.P. Sharma v. Satish Chandra, AIR 1954 SC 300 (302): (1954) SCR 1077.The executive power of 'search and seizure' is a necessary concomitant of a welfare State. It tends to promote the well-being of the nation, Bishambhar Dayal Chandra Mohan v. State of Uttar Pradesh, AIR 1982 SC 33 (43). [Constitution of India, Artis. 162, 19(1)(g)(6) and 301]...
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...
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 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. [Kerala Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act (2 of 1956) s. 11 (4) (i)]Requires voluntary participation not only after the exercise of intelligence based on the knowledge of the significance and moral quality of the act but after having fully exercised the choice between resistance and assent, State of Himachal Pradesh v.
