Open space
Open space, means it is only with reference to the country that the word 'open' carries the meaning 'free from wood building etc.' Accepting the several meanings of the word 'open' the existence of 7 or 8 scattered trees within the space sixty feet wide all round would not render the entire space any less an open space within the meaning of that expression in the proviso to rule 18(a) of the Madras Places of Public Resort Act II of 1888. It is equally clear that the existence of say one free at one corner of the space would not prevent the space being an open space, Nachimuthu v. Ramaswami Chettiar, 69 MLW 887: (1956) 2 MLJ 556 (DB).By the (English) Metropolitan Open Spaces Acts of 1877 and 1881, the (English) Metropolitan Board of Works (succeeded by the London County Council, under s. 40, sub-s. 8, of the (English) Local Government Act, 1888) had power to acquire and to hold of the use of the public any open spaces within the metropolis. These Acts were extended, with amendments, to ...
Open Court
Open Court. Every Court of Justice is open to every subject of the King, Scott v. Scott, 1913 AC 417 (440). By statute the place where justices summarily convict is an open Court [(English) Summary Jurisdiction Act, 1848, s. 12], but not so the place where they commit a prisoner for trial at assizes or sessions (Indictable Offences Act, 1848, s. 19). Whether a coroner's court is an open Court is a matter of doub if it is not a Court of Justice; it is submitted that it is not [see Jervis on Coroners, citing Garnett v. Ferrand, (1827) 6 B&C 611]; the general rule is that all courts of justice are open to all so long as there is room see Scott v. Scott, ubi supra, where the whole question of hearing cases in camera is discussed. See also R. v. Gov. of Lewes Prison, (1917) 2 KB 254; and McPherson v. McPherson, 1936 AC 177.Sessions Court holding trial within jail premises is an 'open court', Kehar Singh v. State (Delhi Admn.), AIR 1988 SC 1883: (1988) 3 SCC 609 (703, 711): (1988) Supp 2 SCR...

If sold in open market
If sold in open market, the words 'if sold in the open market' do not contemplate actual sale or the actual state of the market, but only enjoins that it should be assumed that there is an open market and the property can be sold in such a market and on that basis, the value has to be found out. It is a hypothetical case which is contemplated and the Tax Officer must assume that there is an open market in which the asset can be sole, Ahmed G.H. Ariff v. C.W.T., (1969) 2 SCC 471: AIR 1971 SC 1691 (1696). [Wealth Tax Act, 1957, s. 7(1)]...
