Landlord and tenant
Landlord and tenant. A tenancy arises when the owner of an estate inland, called the lessor or landlord, agrees expressly or by implication to allow another person, called the lessee or tenant, to enjoy the exclusive possession and use of the land for a period less than the landlord's estate in it, generally upon payment of rent. The landlord's estate is called the reversion, and at common law, a power of distress for rent is incident to the reversion.Leases or tenancies may be (1) for any agreed period such as for years or less, e.g., for a year, half-year, quarter or week; (2) from year to year; (3) at will; (4) on sufferance; or (5) they may arise upon estoppel; or (6) exist by force of a statute (see LEASE; INCREASE OF RENT). In a narrower sense the words 'tenancy' and 'landlord and tenant' are generally restricted to lease of a house or land for occupational purposes. If nothing appears to the contrary, either expressly or by implication, in the lease or agreement, the landlord is...
Condition of service
Condition of service, includes transfer of the employees, General Officer Commanding-in-Chief v. Subhash Chandra Yadav, (1988) 2 SCC 351: AIR 1988 SC 876. [Cantonment Board Service Rules (1937) R. 5C]The expression 'conditions of service' is an expression of wide import. As pointed by the Supreme Court in Pradyat Kumar Bose v. Hon'ble the Chief Justice of Calcutta High Court, (1955) 2 SCR 1331, the dismissal of an official is a matter which falls within 'conditions of service' of public servants. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in North West Frontier Province v. Suraj Narain Anand, (1948) LR 75 IA 343, took the view that a right of dismissal is a condition of service within the meaning of the words under s. 243 of the Government of India Act, 1935. Lord Thankerton speaking for the Board observed therein: 'apart from consideration whether the context indicates a special significance to the expression 'conditions of service' their Lordships are unable in the absence of any su...
Agricultural Holdings Act, 1923
Agricultural Holdings Act, 1923 (English) (13 & 14 Geo. 5, cc. 9 and 25). By a series of statutes commencing with the Agricultural Holdings Act, 1875, statutory compensation has been provided for an outgoing agricultural tenant in respect of the improvements effected by him during his tenancy. The operation of this Act could be and frequently was excluded by agreement, but now the tenant cannot deprive himself by contract of the right to claim compensation which is conferred on him by the Act, although he may within limits substitute other benefits by agreement. The Act of 1923 (as amended by the Agricultural Holdings Amendment Act, 1923) repeals and consolidates all the earlier statutes dealing with the subject, and confers on outgoing tenants of 'holdings' the rights and benefits briefly outlined below. The term 'holding' means any parcel of land held by a tenant which is wholly agricultural or wholly pastoral, or in whole or in part cultivated as a market garden, and which is not le...

Next friend
Next friend. At law, an infant having a guardian might sue by his guardian, as such, or by his next friend, though he must always have defended by his guardian. In equity he sued by next friend, and not by guardian, and defended by guardian ad litem. A married woman, before the Married Women's Property Act, could not sue either at law or inequity unless her husband were joined.Infants may sue as plaintiffs by their next friends in the manner practised before the Jud. Acts in the Court of Chancery (as to which see Dan. Ch Pr., 5th ed. p. 602), and may in like manner defend any action by their guardian appointed for that purpose by Ord. XVI., r. 16. The next friend of an infant is prima facie liable for the costs, which are, however, reimbursed to him out of the infant's estate, provided he have acted properly; but the next friend of a feme covert did not incur the like responsibility. [O. 32, r. 1, C.P.C.]A married woman had, by Ord. XVI., r. 8, of the Rules of 1875, the same right of s...
