Civil Law
Civil Law, that rule of action which every particular nation, commonwealth, or city has established peculiarly for itself, more properly distinguished by the name of municipal law.The term 'civil law' is now chiefly applied to that which the Romans complied from the laws of nature and nations.The 'Roman Law'and the 'Civil Law' are convertible phrases, meaning the same system of jurisprudence; it is now frequently denominated 'the Roman Civil Law.'The collections of Roman Civil Law, before its reformation in the sixth century of the Christian era by the eastern Emperor Justinian, were the following:--(1) Leges Regi'. These laws were for the most part promulgated by Romulus, Numa Pompilius and Servius Tullius. To Romulus are ascribed the formation of a constitutional government, and the imposition of a fine, instead of death, for crimes; Numa Pompilius composed the laws relating to religion and divine worship, and abated the rigour of subsisting laws; and Servius Tullius, the sixth king,...

Tenancy in Common
Tenancy in Common. Legal estate in undivided shares inland has been abolished by the Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 1, which reduced the interest of tenants-in-common to that of a cestui que trust under a trust for sale of land. The following notes have been kept verbatim to explain titles as they existed immediately before 1926. This estate is created when several persons have several distinct estates, either of the same or of a different quantity, in any subject of property, in equal or unequal shares, and either by the same act or by several acts, and by several titles, and not a joint title. A tenancy-in-common will, as a rule, be construed to exist wherever the instrument creating it indicates that the land is to be held in shares, equally, or in moieties, or the nature of the transaction is such as to preclude the intention of survivorship such as an acquisition of land by partners for the purposes of their business.A tenancy-in-common differs from a joint-tenancy in this respect:...
Open market
Open market, if the transactions of sale and pur-chase are effected under conditions enabling every person desirous of purchasing the goods in question to place orders with such manufacturing unit and obtain supplies, they will constitute purchases 'from the open market'. The Supreme Court in in this context referred with advantage to the following observations of Swinfen Eady, J. in Inland Revenue Commissioners v. Clay, (1914) 3 KB 466: (1914-1915) All ER Rep 882 (888), where the Court of Appeal had to consider the scope of the expression 'open market' occurring in s. 25(1) of the Finance Act, 1910 (10 Edw 7, c 8): The market is to be the open market, as distinguished from an offer to a limited class only, such as the members of the family. The market is not necessarily an auction-sale. The s. means such amount as the land might be expected to realize if offered under conditions enabling every person desirous of purchasing to come in and make an offer, and if proper steps were taken t...

Intent to annoy
Intent to annoy, the correct position in law may, be stated thus: In order to establish that the entry on the property was with the intent to annoy, intimi-date or insult, it is necessary for the Court to be satisfied that causing such annoyance, intimidation or insult was the aim of the entry; that it is not sufficient for that purpose to show merely that the natural consequence of the entry was likely to be annoyance, intimidation or insult, and that this likely consequence was known to the person enter-ing; that in deciding whether the aim of the entry was the causing of such annoyance, intimidation or insult, the Court has to consider all the relevant circumstances including the presence of know-ledge that its natural consequences would be such annoyance, intimidation or insult and including also the probability or something else than the causing of such intimidation, insult or annoyance, being the dominant intention which prompted the entry, (AIR 1964 SC 986); Rash Behari Chatterj...
