Water and watercourse
Water and watercourse. In the language of the law the term 'land' includes water, 2 Bl. Com. 18. An action cannot be brought to recover possession of a pool or other piece of water by the name of water only, but it must be brought for the land that lies at the bottom, e.g. 'twenty acres of land covered with water.'-Brownl. 142. See POOL. By granting a certain water, though the right of fishing passes, yet the soil does not. Water being a movable, wandering thing, there can be only a temporary, transient, usufructuary property therein. Consult Coulson and Forbes on the Law of Waters, Gale on Easements, and Angell on Watercourse. 'Water' does not include the land on which it stands, unless perhaps in the case of salt pits or springs, where the interest of each owner is measured by builleries, ballaries or buckets of brine, Burt. Comp. pl. (550), and see Co. Litt. 4 b.The (English) Waterworks Clauses Act, 1847, and the Waterworks Clauses Act, 1863 (see Chitty's Statutes, tit. 'Water,' and...
Restrictive trade practice
Restrictive trade practice, means a trade practice which tends to bring about manipulation of price or its conditions of delivery or to affect flow of supplies in the market relating to goods or services in such a manner as to impose on the consumers unjustified costs or restrictions and shall include--(a) delay beyond the period agreed to by a trader in supply of such goods or in providing the services which has led or is likely to lead to rise in the price.(b) Any trade practice which requires a consumer to buy, hire or avail of any goods or, as the case maybe, services as condition precedent to buying, hiring or availing of other goods or services. [The Consumer Protection Act, 1986 (68 of 1986), s. 2 (1) (nnn)]The definition of restrictive trade practice is an exhaustive and not an inclusive one. The decision whether trade practice is restrictive or not has to be arrived at by applying the rule of reason and not on the doctrine that any restriction as to area or price will per se b...
Water
Water, the word 'water (jal)' refers to water in tanks or wells and does not refer to the flowing water of the river. Indeed, if a grant of the river including it flowing water is intended to be made, the Sanad would have definitely used the word 'river (nadi)', because it is well-known that when rivers, drains or culverts are intended to be gifted, the Sanads usually use the words 'nadi and nalla.' Therefore, on a plain construction of the relevant words used in the Sanad, there can be no doubt that what is conveyed to the grantee by the Sanad is stationary of static water in the ponds or wells and not the flowing water of the river, S.N. Ranade v. Union of India, AIR 1964 SC 24 (27): (1964) 1 SCR 885.1. The transparent liquid that is a chemical compound of hydrogen and Oxygen (H2O)2. A body of this liquid, as in a stream, river, lake, or ocean, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 1585....
use
use 1 a : an arrangement in which property is granted to another with the trust and confidence that the grantor or another is entitled to the beneficial enjoyment of it see also trust Statute of Uses in the Important Laws section NOTE: Uses originated in early English law and were the origin of the modern trust. Uses became popular in medieval England, where they were often secretly employed as a method of evading laws (as those prohibiting mortmain) and penalties (as attainder) and to defeat creditors. In response, the Statute of Uses was enacted in 1535. The purpose of the Statute was to execute the use, investing the legal ownership of the property in the cestui que use, or one entitled to the beneficial enjoyment, and abolishing the ownership of the grantee. The Statute did not have blanket application, however. Certain uses, particularly those in which the grantee was not merely a passive holder of the property, were not executed under the Statute. These uses were called trust...
