Notwithstanding any judgment, decree or other authority, the words 'notwithstanding and judg-ment, decree or order of any Court or other authority' in the proviso make it clear and leave no doubt that the legislature intended that the finality of 'judgment, decree or order of any Court or other authority' should not stand in the way of giving full effect to the retrospective introduction of the proviso in s. 3 and applying the provisions of the Delhi Rent Control Act, 1958 in cases falling within the proviso, Sunder Dass v.

Mesne process
Mesne process, all those writs which intervene in the progress of a suit or action between its beginning and end, as contradistinguished from primary and final process. Thus, the capias or mesne process was issued after a writ of summons, which was the primary process, and before a capias ad satisfaciendum, which was the final process, or process of execution. See IMPRISONMENT.By the (English) Judgments Act, 1838 (1 & 2 Vict. c. 110), s. 1, the power of arrest upon mesne process was relaxed, and confined to the case of a debtor about to quit England, and where the amount of the debt was 20l. or upwards; and by the (English) Debtors Act, 1869 (32 & 33 Vict. c. 62), s. 6, it is enacted, that 'after the commencement of the Act a person shall not be arrested upon mesne process in any action.' Nevertheless, where a plaintiff has good cause of action against the defendant to the amount of 50l. or upwards, and the defendant is about to quit England, and the absence of the defendant from Engla...

The pendency of another action between the same a parties for the same cause of action might, under the former practice, have been pleaded in abatement, though not in bar; but the pendency of an action in an inferior or foreign court could not be so pleaded. Such matter may now be setup by way of defence, or the action may be stayed by the court, under the (English) Judicature Act, 1925, s. 41, replacing Judicature Act, 1873, s. 24 (5).The actual pendency of a suit in equity was regarded as notice of the suit to all the world, though after a complete decision the public attention may be supposed to be drawn off to other matters, and therefore a person was allowed to be ignorant of a final decree of the court made in a cause in which he was not concerned, see Price v. Price, (1887) 35 Ch D 297. But by the (English) Judgments Act, 1839 (2 & 3 Vict. c. 11), s. 7, it was enacted that no lis pendens shall bind a purchaser or mortgagee without express notice the...
