PLEADINGS (ORDER VI)

Rule 1 defines pleadings as a written statement or a plaint.

Pleading is the beginning stage of a lawsuit in which parties formally submit their
claims and defenses. It is a statement in writing filed by the counsel of plaintiff
stating his contentions on the case, on the basis of which the defendant shall file
the written statement defending himself and explaining why the plaintiff’s
contentions should not prevail.

Pleadings serve an important function of providing notice to the defendant that a


lawsuit has been instituted concerning a specific controversy.

The plaintiff submits a complaint stating the cause of action, the issue in
controversy. The defendant submits an answer stating his or her defenses and
denials. The defendant may also submit a counterclaim stating a cause of action
against the plaintiff.

The pleadings help both the parties know their point of dispute and where both
parties differ so as to bring forth the relevant arguments and evidence in the court
of law.

Types of Pleadings

Plaint: Plaint is the statement of claim in writing and filed by the plaintiff, in
which he sets out his cause of action with all necessary particulars. Plaint is the
first process in inferior court, whereby a party seeks remedy from court for the
redressal of his grievances.

Written Statement: Written statement is the statement of defence in writing and


filed by the defendant, in which he deals with every material fact alleged by the
plaintiff in the plaint. Defendant can state any new facts, which he considers to
be in his Favor, and can raise legal objections to the merits of the case, prescribed
by various laws e.g. plea of limitation, plea of estoppels, plea of res-judicata etc.
Rule 2 states the fundamentals of pleadings:

• Pleading should only state facts and not the law.


• The facts that are stated in the pleading must be material facts.
• It should never state or disclose the evidence.
• The facts stated in the pleading must be in a concise form.
• Pleading shall be divided into paragraphs, numbered consecutively.
• Every allegations should be contained in separate paragraphs.
• Dates, sums and numbers should be expressed in figures as well as in
words.

Other Rules of Pleading

• Specific particulars w.r.t. dates and items should be mentioned in the


pleadings in a case for misrepresentation, criminal breach of trust, fraud,
or willful default in payment of due.
• Non-performance of a condition precedent should be specifically
mentioned in the pleadings. Performance of the condition precedent shall
not form a part of the pleadings since it is already implied.
• If new allegations or grounds are not added to the initial pleadings, it may
be added at a later stage of the proceeding. Provided that no party can raise
any ground of claim or allegation of fact inconsistent with his previous
pleadings.
• Wherever malice, fraudulent intention, knowledge or other condition of the
mind of a person is material, it may be alleged in the pleading only as a
fact without setting out the circumstances from which it is to be inferred.
• Every pleading should be signed by the party or by his pleader.
• A party to the suit shall provide with his and the opposite party’s address.
• Every pleading must be verified on an affidavit by the party or a person
who is well acquainted with the facts stated in the pleading.
• The Court may order to struck out or amend any matter in any pleading-
o which may be unnecessary, scandalous, frivolous or vexatious, or
o which may tend to prejudice, embarrass or delay the fair trial
o which is an abuse of the process of the Court.

Amendment of Pleadings

Rules 17 & 18 of Order VI CPC deal with amendment of pleading. These


provisions aim towards achieving justice in the society.

Rule 17 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 provides either parties may be
ordered to amend or alter his pleading at any stage of the proceeding in such
manner which shall be fair and just and allow amendment when necessary, so as
to determine the exact controversial question between the parties.

Rule 18 deals with the issue of failure of amending the pleading. If court orders
a party to make necessary amendment and if he fails to do the same within the
time limit given by the order or if no time is limited then within 14 days from the
date of the order, he shall not be permitted to amend after the expiration of such
limited time or of such 14 days, as the case may be, unless the time is extended
by the Court.

PLAINT (ORDER VII)

A plaint is a legal document that contains the claims made by the plaintiff when
they bring a case to a civil court. It’s the first step in starting a lawsuit.

• Plaint should contain name of that court in which suit is brought.


• Plaint should contain name, description and residence of plaintiff.
• Plaint should contain name, description and residence of defendant.
• When plaintiff or defendant is minor or person of unsound mind, plaint
should contain a statement to that effect.
• Plaint should contain those facts, which have constituted cause of action.
In addition to this, it should also described when cause of action has arisen.
• Plaint should contain those facts, which show the court has jurisdiction.
• Plaint should contain that relief, which plaintiff claims.
• When plaintiff has allowed set off or has relinquished a portion of his
claim, plaint should contain that amount, which has been so allowed or so
relinquished.
• Plaint should contain the value of subject-matter of suit not only for
purpose of jurisdiction, but also for purpose of court-fees.
• Plaint should contain plaintiff’s verification on oath.
• If the suit is for recovery of money, the plaint should contain the exact
amount claimed.
• If the suit is for mesne profit, or a debt the value of which cannot be
estimated with reasonable diligence, the approximate amount may be
stated instead of the exact amount.
• If the suit is for immovable property, the plaint should contain a proper
description sufficient to identify such property along with boundaries,
survey numbers, etc., wherever possible.
• Where the plaintiff files a suit in a representative character, the plaint must
show not only that he has an actual existing interest in the subject matter
of the suit, but also that he has taken the necessary steps to enable him to
file such a suit.
• If the suit if filed after expiry of the limitation period, the plaint must state
the ground on which exemption from the law of limitation is claimed.
• Where the plaintiff seeks relief in respect of several distinct claims or
causes of action founded on separate and distinct grounds, they should be
stated separately and distinctly.
• The plaint must state specifically the relief claimed by the plaintiff.
Rule 9 lays down the procedure when the plaint is admitted by the court. It
provides for the filling of copies of the plaint by the plaintiff and also requires
him to pay requisite fees for the service of summons on the defendants within
seven days.

A plaint can be divided into three important parts such as heading and title, the
body of the plaint, and the relief claimed.

Return of Plaint

If a court determines that it lacks jurisdiction to finally decide the matter at any
stage of the proceedings, it has the authority to return the plaint to be presented
before a court that has the jurisdiction to address the issue.

Rejection of Plaint

• If the cause of action is not clearly mentioned in the plaint, making it


impossible to prove the harm suffered by the plaintiff, the court may reject
the plaint.
• If the relief sought by the plaintiff is undervalued and the court asks the
plaintiff to correct the valuation within a given time frame, but the plaintiff
fails to do so, the plaint in CPC may be rejected.
• When all the documents are not properly stamped and the court requires
the plaintiff to provide the required stamp paper within a specified time,
failure to do so may lead to the rejection of the plaint.
• If the plaint is based on a statement or claim secured by a law, that does not
grant the plaintiff the right to file the suit, the court may reject it.
• Where the plaint is not filed in duplicate, then the court may reject it.
• If the plaintiff does not comply with the provisions of Order VII Rule 9 of
the CPC, the court may reject the plaint.

WRITTEN STATEMENT (ORDER VIII)


Written statement is the defense of the defendants. A written statement is a reply
of plaint in which defendant deny or admit the each and every allegation or facts
given in the plaint.

Denial or admission must be Para wise and clear. The defendant cannot simply
provide a general denial, he must address each allegation individually.

The facts which remain unanswered by the defendant, it will be presumed that
the said fact was admitted by the defendant.

In the written statement, defendant can state new facts or ground which is
necessary to defeat the plaintiff. If defendant want to put his own claim against
the plaintiff he can put it by way of set-off and counterclaim.

Who may file written statement?

Written statement is filed by the defendant or his duly authorized agent. If there
are several defendants a common written statement can be filed by them. In such
case it must be signed by all of them. As far as verification is concerned, it can be
verified by any one defendant.

A written statement must be filed within thirty days from the date of service of
the summons. The said period can be extended up to ninety days.

However, in commercial disputes, the defendant is still initially given thirty days
to file their written statement after receiving the summons. However, the court
can extend this period for up to one hundred and twenty days from the date of the
summons. The court must record its reasons for every extension of time period.

Rule 1A: Where the defendant relies upon any document in his possession or
power in support of his defense, he shall enter such document in a list, and shall
produce it in Court when the written statement is presented by him. He shall at
the same time deliver the document and a copy to be filed with the written
statement.
If the defendants fails to exhibits such documents along with a written statement,
he will be restrained from producing it as an evidence in his defense unless the
court permits.

Order VIII Rule 6 relates to legal set-off. It is a cross claim where a defendant
acknowledges the plaintiff’s demand but set up against another demand of his
own to counter balance that of the plaintiff either in whole or in part.

The defendant may at the time of filing of the written statement, may present in
his pleadings claiming the debt against the plaintiff by way of set-off. Things to
be taken care of in making a claim of set-off:

• It is a suit for recovery of money.


• Claim of defendant must be for ascertained sum of money i.e. specific and
certain.
• Such sum should be legally recoverable, i.e. it should not be time barred.
• Such sum should not exceed pecuniary limits of the jurisdiction of the
court.
• Both parties must be in same character in set-off as well as in the suits.

Order VIII Rules 6A-6G provides for counter-claim. It can be defined as a claim
made by the defendant against the plaintiff in the suit filed by plaintiff.

Such counter-claim against the plaintiff can be set up by the defendant. The cause
of action for such counter-claim may accrue either before or after filing of the suit
by the plaintiff but before the defendant has delivered his defence or before the
time fixed for delivery of his defence has expired.

The counter claim of the defendant will be treated as plaint and the plaintiff has
a right to file a written statement in answer to such counter-claim.

Such claim does not exceed the pecuniary limits of the jurisdiction of the court.
Such claim shall not be barred by limitation.
Rule 10: Where the party fails to file written statement within the period fixed by
the court, the court shall pronounce judgement against him or make such order as
it thinks fit and a decree shall be drawn accordingly.

DEPONENT

APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 5 OF LIMITATION ACT, 1963

The Limitation Act of 1963 is legislation which specifies the time period within
which a suit is instituted.

This legislation enumerates relevant provisions regarding the delay in filing


application, suit and appeal under competent jurisdiction and how that delay can
be condoned.

Section 5 of the Limitation Act talks about the condonation of delay. The term
condonation means an implied pardon of an offense by treating the offender as if
it had not been committed.

It provides that any appeal or application may be admitted after the prescribed
period if the appellant or applicant shows that he had a sufficient cause for not
filing the appeal or application within the prescribed period.
The term “sufficient cause” is not defined under the Limitation Act. It varies from
case to case. The court has wide discretion for the determination of what
constitutes a sufficient cause depending on each case’s facts and circumstances.

However, the Limitation Act provides for condoning delay with respect to all
applications except applications under order 21 of CPC i.e., execution of decrees
and order.

Instances where condonation is allowed-

• Subsequent changes in the law.


• Imprisonment of the party.
• Illness of the person filing the suit or appeal or application.
• Party is a pardanashin woman.
• Party is illiterate.
• Delay caused due to the pendency of the writ petition.
• Party belongs to a minority group having insufficient funds.
• Poverty or paupers.
• Party is a government servant.
• Other adequate grounds: Mistake of Court, Mistake of Counsel, Delay in
getting copies, mislead by rulings, etc.

Hence, condonation of delay is a remedy where a meritorious case be heard after


providing a sufficient cause to the court when the prescribed period has ended.

General Principles to Be Followed:

The Supreme Court also gave certain principle which binds the Courts to follow
while adjudicating the issue regarding condonation of delay. These are

• Ordinarily, a litigant does not have the right to receive benefit from filing
a late appeal.
• If the delay is condoned, then the case must be decided after both parties
have been provided with an opportunity of being heard before the court.
But if condonation is refused, then there is a chance that a meritorious
matter would be thrown out on the basis of technicalities.
• Every day’s delay must be explained, does not mean the doctrine is to be
applied in an irrational manner. It must be applied in a sensible manner and
not a literal one.
• Between substantial justice and technical considerations, the substantial
justice should be preferred before since the other side cannot claim that
injustice is done because of a bona fide delay.
• The court should not presume that the delay is occasioned deliberately. The
litigant has nothing to gain by resorting to delay and runs a serious risk.

APPLICATION FOR SETTING ASIDE EX-PARTE DECREE - O9 R13

Order 9 Rule 13 provides a remedy for the defendant to apply for setting aside
the ex-parte decree which was passed due to the non-appearance of the defendant
in the civil suit. The court only sets aside the ex-parte decree when the defendant
presents a satisfactory reason in court for non-appearance.

Grounds for Reversal: The defendant can apply for setting aside the ex-parte
decree by demonstrating to the court that either the summons were not properly
served or that he was prevented from appearing in court due to a valid and
sufficient reason.

If the court is satisfied with these reasons, it can pass an order rescinding the
judgment against the defendant. The court may also impose conditions as it deems
appropriate, which could include terms related to costs, payments to the court or
other factors.

Setting a Date for Hearing: After rescinding the ex-parte decree, the court will
establish a new date for the matter to be heard. This allows both parties to present
their case and participate in the legal proceedings.

Provisions Regarding Other Defendants: The first proviso to Order IX Rule 13


of the CPC states that where the decree is of such a nature that it cannot be set
aside as against such defendant only, then it may be set aside against all or any of
the other defendants.

Proviso on Summons Irregularity: The second proviso to Order IX Rule 13


deals with cases where the defendant was given proper notice of the hearing date
and had sufficient time to appear and contest the plaintiff’s claim - in such
situations, if the defendant files a request to set aside an ex-parte order based
solely on an irregularity in summons service, the court may not set aside the ex-
parte decree.

Restriction on Appeals: The provision also includes a restriction that states that
no application shall be allowed under this rule to set aside the ex-parte decree if
an appeal against the ex-parte decree has been dismissed.

These provisions under Order IX Rule 13 CPC are designed to ensure that
defendants have the opportunity to seek relief and set aside ex-parte decrees if
they can provide valid reasons for their non-appearance in court or irregularities
in the legal process. It is a crucial legal safeguard to maintain fairness and due
process in civil litigation.

SUIT FOR RECOVERY UNDER ORDER 37 CPC - SUMMARY SUIT

Summary suits are intended to provide a speedy and relatively simple means of
resolving certain types of civil disputes, without the need for a full trial.

The objective of this is to avoid unnecessarily extending the litigation process by


the defendant in the cases where speedy judgments are desirable, which could
help the complainants to save monetary expenses as well.

Under the CPC, a summary suit can be instituted in cases where the plaintiff’s
claim is based on a negotiable instrument (such as a promissory note, bill of
exchange, or cheque) or on an agreement that provides for the payment of a debt
or liquidated demand in money.

In order to be eligible for a summary suit, the plaintiff’s claim must be for a
specific amount of money, and must not be disputed.

• As per the Limitation Act, 1963, the limitation period for filing a summary
suit is three years from the date on which the cause of action arose.
• Summary suits can be instituted in Courts of Small Causes, City Civil
Courts, High Courts, and any court notified by the High Court.

After the institution of a summary suit, the defendant should be served a copy of
the plaint and summons in the prescribed form. The defendant has to make an
appearance within 10 days of service of summons. If the defendant makes an
appearance, the plaintiff shall serve him a summons for judgment. Then the
defendant has to apply for leave to defend the suit. Leave may be granted to him
unconditionally or what the court deems fit. If the defendant doesn’t apply for
leave to defend, the plaintiff becomes entitled to judgment.

In summary suits, the defendant will be given a chance to defend himself if leave
is granted.
In case of non-appearance of defendant, a decree is passed in favour of plaintiff
easily whereas in ordinary suits multiple summonses are served and then an ex
parte order is passed.

The plaintiff is designated to a decree of a sum not surpassing the amount


mentioned in the plaint including interest and cost.

SUIT FOR PERMANENT INJUNCTION

A suit for permanent injunction is filed by the plaintiff that restrains the defendant
from engaging in specific actions or behaviours permanently.

This legal remedy is typically pursued when the plaintiff believes that the
defendant’s actions if allowed to continue, will result in irreparable harm to their
legal rights or interests and monetary compensation would be insufficient to
rectify the situation.

Such a suit for permanent injunction can be initiated when there is an actual or
imminent threat of irreparable harm or injury to the plaintiff’s legal rights.

Permanent injunction can exclusively be obtained through a decree issued during


the trial proceedings and based on the merits of the case.

SUIT FOR DISSOLUTION OF PARTNERSHIP

between partners and winding up the affairs of the partnership.

Partnerships may be dissolved due to various reasons, including:

• Voluntarily Dissolution: Where the partners mutually agree to terminate


the partnership.
• Death of a Partner: If a partner passes away, it generally leads to the
dissolution of the partnership. However, the remaining partners can choose
to continue the business after making necessary adjustments.
• Admission of a New Partner: When a new partner is admitted to the
partnership, it may require the dissolution of the existing partnership and
the formation of a new one with the new partner included.
• Retirement of a Partner: If a partner decides to retire from the partnership,
it may result in the dissolution of the partnership. The remaining partners
can then decide whether to continue the business or wind it up.
• Bankruptcy of a Partner: If a partner becomes bankrupt, it can lead to the
dissolution of the partnership.
• Expiry of Partnership Period: If the partnership is formed for a specific
period, the partnership automatically dissolves when that period expires.

partner’s behaviour is detrimental to the partnership or if there is a breach of the
partnership agreement, the court may order the dissolution.

REVIEW PETITION

The word “review” means to examine again. A review petition is filed to re-
examine the facts and evidence and pronounce a new judgment.

Section 114 of the Code of Civil Procedure gives a substantive right of review
and Order 47 provides the procedure for filing a review petition.

Section 114 states that any aggrieved person may apply for a review of a judgment
or order made by the Court, if:

• The appeal is allowed but has not been preferred by the petitioner, or
• The appeal is not allowed by the Court, or
• Aggrieved by a decision on a reference from a Court of Small Causes.

Under Article 137 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court has the power to review
any judgment pronounced or order made by it. This power is given to the Supreme
Court to correct a “patent mistake” or “grave error” resulting in miscarriage of
justice and not to fix minor mistakes of inconsequential results.
A review petition is to be filed within 30 days of the pronouncement of judgment.

The review petition should be circulated, without oral arguments, to the same
bench that delivered the judgment. However, if a Judge or bench is not available
who delivered the original order/ judgment due to various reasons, any other
competent Court is authorized and empowered to deal with the review application
and the application cannot be dismissed merely on the ground that the said Judge
is no longer in position.

Similarly, High Courts have also been given the power of reviewing its judgment
under Article 226 of the Constitution. However, it can only be invoked when there
is a breach of law or violation of the Constitution.

Grounds for Review:

1. Discovery of new and important matter or evidence.


2. Mistake or error made by the court which is apparent on the face of the
record.
3. Any other sufficient reason: It has to be analogous to the other two grounds.
Some of the sufficient reasons are:
• Violation of a fundamental right
• Violation of the principles of natural justice
• Judgment was obtained by fraud
• Court made the earlier order without jurisdiction.

APPLICATION FOR BAIL

Bail application is filed before the court for the release of a person in custody.

The bail application is filed by the advocates on behalf of the accused for the
provisional release of the accused. The accused has to furnish bond and sureties
before the court then he will be released on the bail.

The arrest is made in order to ensure that the accused must be present before the
court during the process of trial. But, if the accused agreed to be present in the
court, without going into jail. Then, in that case, it is unfair to restrict his personal
liberty, that’s why the provision of bail is included in the provisional laws.

The accused may be charged with bailable and non-bailable offences, but they
can be granted bail. The accused has to follow the necessary condition laid down
in his bail application. If the accused jumps any of the bail conditions, then the
police have the power to arrest the accused.

APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 125 CRPC

Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code provides for the maintenance to the
wife, child, and parents. It provides that any person who has sufficient means to
maintain himself cannot deny the maintenance to the wife, children, and parents
if they are not able to maintain themselves.

However, sometimes the husbands, against whom the order of maintenance is


passed may not be satisfied with the judgment passed by the lower court and
therefore, they should have a platform where they can put up their grievances
against the order. Therefore, they have the right to file the revision application in
the court of law as provided under Section 397 of the Code.

Whenever the judgment is passed in favour of the wife, the court has to make sure
that the husband has sufficient means to provide maintenance to the wife. The
court also needs to make sure that the wife after the separation does not have
enough money to maintain herself, or the wife must not be living in adultery.

The main goal of Section 125 of the CrPC of 1973 is to support abandoned and
impoverished wives, neglected and abandoned children, and vulnerable, elderly,
and disabled parents. As a result, this provision promotes social welfare and social
service.

petitioner’s character and said that because she is born and brought up in
Delhi and has gone to college therefore, she definitely has a bad character.
That the respondent started linking the petitioner to various men and also
stooped to a level by suggesting that she had a relationship even with her
cousin. She was unable to bear such defamatory words and when she tried
to reply to them, respondent and his family members started
beating/slapping and/ punching her.
5. On 02/03/2020, the Respondent sent the petitioner to her father’s place and
had threatened her not to say a word about physical beating to her father.

when the respondent forced the petitioner to leave the matrimonial house
and has further refused to maintain the petitioner which he is legally and
morally bound to do. The cause of action is still subsisting as the
Respondent has refused to maintain the petitioner.

COMPLAINT U/S 138, NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENTS ACT, 1881


Section 138 of Act deals with punishment of dishonour of cheques. It has no
concern with dishonour of other negotiable instruments.

Dishonour of cheque is not an offence in itself but to become an offence, the


following ingredients should be there:

• There should be a drawer that draws the cheque.


• The cheque drawn should be in discharge of some liability.
• Presentation of the cheque to the drawee bank.
• The cheque should be presented within six months from the date on which
it was drawn or within the period of its validity, whichever is earlier.
• The cheque returned by the bank unpaid on account of insufficient funds,
or it exceeds the amount arranged.
• Within 30 days of receiving a memo of return from the bank, a notice
should be served to drawer for payment of the said money.
• The drawer fails to pay the said money within 15 days of the receipt of the
said notice.

It is to be noted here that if the drawer pays the debt within 15 days, there would
be no offence.

The offence is said to be committed under Section 138 of the NI Act, only when
he fails to pay the debt within 15 days and such person shall be punishable with
imprisonment for a term which may be extended to two years, or with a fine which
may extend to twice the amount of the cheque, or with both.

COMPOUNDING OF OFFENCES BY WAY OF COMPROMISE UNDER


SECTION 320 CRPC

Compounding is an arrangement whereby there is settlement of the differences


between the injured party and the person against whom the complaint is made.

If there is a settlement between the accused and the victim, it may be prudent in
some cases to permit the compounding of offences and to end the legal
proceedings. Sometimes, the public prosecutor or the complainant may decide it
is preferable to drop the case, the court may then approve this withdrawal, ending
the criminal trial.

To compound means “to settle a matter by a money payment, in lieu of other


liability.” In criminal law, the victim has the capacity to compound the offence.
Section 320 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, provides legal provisions
for the compounding of offences. The purpose of Section 320 of the Code is to
promote amicable relations between the parties in order to restore peace.

The offences that may lawfully be compounded are those that are mentioned in
Section 320 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The offences other than those
cannot be compounded.

Under Section 320(1) of the Criminal Procedure Code, the legislation permits the
compounding of offences without the consent of the court. For e.g.:

• Wrongful restraint or confinement.


• Illegal trespass.
• Intentionally hurting someone.
• Mischief.
• Adultery.
• Criminal intimidation, etc.

Under Section 320(2) of the Criminal Procedure Code, the law permits the
compounding of offences for which a court’s approval is required. For e.g.:

• Voluntarily causing grievous hurt.


• Criminal breach of trust.
• Remarriage while a husband or wife is still alive.
• Cheating.
• Causing miscarriage.
• Theft committed by a clerk or a servant, etc.

When an offence is compounded, it means the person who experienced the crime
receives some form of compensation from the accused person. This compensation
isn’t necessarily money and it’s meant to avoid going through a legal trial.

Nature of Compoundable Offences


For an offence to be considered a compoundable offence, it needs to have certain
characteristics:

• The severity of the offence must not be extremely high.


• Compoundable offences are typically of a private nature. Private offences
negatively affect an individual’s personal rights or identity. These offences
should not harm the general public and should not go against the well-being
of the state.

Offences like rape, murder and dacoity are extremely serious in nature and
therefore cannot be resolved through a compromise.

Section 320 of the CrPC deals with compoundable offences. This section outlines
a range of crimes under the Indian Penal Code (IPC), 1860, that can be settled
through an agreement between the victims and the wrongdoers. Such an
agreement between both parties is known as ‘compounding of an offence’.
Consequently, specific IPC offences that are explicitly listed in Section 320 of the
CrPC can be resolved through a compromise agreed upon by both parties.

In certain situations, the complainant’s non-appearance or death may require the


proceedings to come to an end; similarly, the case may also be dropped if the
accused individual passes away, subject to certain conditions.

If an offence is compoundable in nature, then aiding or abetting the commission


of such an offence, or an attempt to do so, is also compoundable in nature.

When a victim is a minor or of unsound mind, a guardian representing such a


person can compound the offence on their behalf. However, before a guardian
may compound an offence on behalf of a minor, the court must grant approval.

If the individual who had the authority to compound the offence is dead, a legal
representative of that person may compound an offence on his or her behalf if
prior authorization is obtained from the court.
When the accused is on trial for a compoundable offence or when the accused has
been convicted by a court and an appeal against the conviction is pending,
compounding of such an offence is not permitted at that stage without the
permission of the court.

It allows the High Court, u/s 401 CrPC, and the Sessions Court, u/s 399 CrPC, to
grant permission to compound offences, provided the individual requesting the
permission is competent to do so.

If the accused is liable either to additional punishment or to a punishment of a


different kind for any previous conviction, then he shall not be permitted to
compound an offence.

The outcome of compounding an offence is that the accused is acquitted. It makes


no difference whether the FIR was filed or whether the trial had begun; as long
as the offence was compounded with the court’s approval, the offender is released
from all the accusations.

APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 482 CRPC

Section 482 CrPC deals with inherent powers of the High Court. The inherent
powers of the High Court under section 482 can be invoked only in three
situations-:

• To give effect to an order passed under the code.


• To prevent the abuse of the process of the court.
• To secure the ends of justice.

It is well settled that the inherent powers under section 482 can be exercised only
when no other remedy is available to the litigant and not where a specific remedy
is provided by the statute. If an effective alternative remedy is available, the High
Court will not exercise its powers under this section.
There has been no limitation prescribed for making an Application under section
482 CrPC. However, the Application is to be filed within a reasonable period of
90 days .

Set aside Orders: The High Court may use its inherent authority to annul any
orders made incorrectly or against the rules of natural justice.

Stay proceedings: The court has the authority to halt proceedings, to stop any
party from taking undue advantage of legal system or harassing the other party.

Issue Directions: The High Court has the authority to give whatever instructions
are required in the interest of justice.

Correct errors: The High Court may use its inherent authority to correct any
mistakes or omissions that could have been made throughout the proceedings.

Prevent the abuse of powers: Preventing the misuse of the judicial process is
something the High Court can do using its inherent authority.

Provide temporary remedy: To prevent irreparable injury to either party or to


maintain the status quo until the issue is finally decided, the court may give
temporary relief.

NOTICE UNDER SECTION 80 CPC

Section 80 of the Code says that when someone wants to file a lawsuit against the
Government or a public officer for something they did in their official role, they
must first give written notice.

Section 80 specifies that you can’t start a lawsuit against the Government or a
public officer for their official actions until two months have passed after you’ve
delivered a written notice. The duration of two months provides time to the
official for responding to the notice served to it.

• If it’s a lawsuit against the Central Government (except for railway


matters), you should send the notice to the Secretary of that Government.
• If it’s a lawsuit against the Central Government (Railways), you can send
the notice to the General Manager of that railway.
• If it’s a lawsuit against the Govt. of the State of Jammu and Kashmir, you
can send it to the Chief Secretary of that Govt. or an authorised officer.
• If it’s a lawsuit against any other state Government, you can send the notice
to the Secretary of that Government or the Collector of the district.
• If it’s a lawsuit against a public officer, you can send the notice to that
public officer.

Section 80(2) is in the nature of an exception to Section 80(1) and enables a


person to file a suit to obtain an urgent & immediate relief without serving any
notice, provided that he have to show the reasonable cause for such urgency.

If the court is satisfied with the grounds for urgent relief, it proceeds with the
case. However, if the court finds no sufficient reason for immediate relief, it
returns the lawsuit for presentation later, after complying with the requirements
of Section 80(1).

The basic requirements of the notice include:

• Clearly identifying the plaintiff’s name, description and residence to allow


for easy identification of the person sending the notice.
• Confirming that the notice was delivered or left at the office of the
appropriate authority specified in Section 80(1).
• Providing a clear indication of the cause of action and the relief sought by
the plaintiff.

The legislative intent behind this provision is to prevent unnecessary litigation


and the wastage of public funds.

INSTRUMENT ACT, 1881

Dear Sir,

Your legal notice dated 09.06.2015 has been placed before me by my


client Sh. …… at Connaught Place, New Delhi -110001 and I, the undersigned,
have been instructed to reply to your said notice on behalf of my client as under:

A. That, the notice under reply which you have sent on behalf of your client,
contains false and frivolous facts provided by your client against my client,
thereby your notice under reply deserves to be withdrawn, with
unconditional apology by your client. Because the claim made by you is
without any basis and is based upon concocted facts, as no claim is made
out against my client and in favour of your client.
B. That, in fact, my client did not place any order for supply of any machines
whatsoever, as alleged by you. But, with a view to dispose of your old stock
of outdated machines, you requested my client to place them at his shop
for sale. Keeping in view old relations, my client agreed to your client’s
proposal, which was subject to the condition that payment would be made
only after those machines were sold out. However, those machines were
not only outdated, but were also mechanically faulty, because of which till
date they are lying with my client, which your client is at liberty to take
back with two days prior notice. It is pertinent to mention herein that the
cheque in question was handed over by my client blank and the same was
to be used only upon instructions of my client, after he could sell out all
those machines.
C. That, however, your client has cheated my client by misusing that cheque
which is not in the handwriting of my client. As a matter of fact, your client
has committed fraud in the matter and, consequently, is liable to be
proceeded under the relevant provisions of law.
D. Therefore, it is denied that the cheque in question was issued by my client
to your client in discharge of any liability. Rather, your client has misused
that blank cheque with ulterior motives, and forged the same.

REPLY ON MERITS:

1. That the contents of para 1 of your legal notice are wrong and denied and
whatsoever is stated above is reiterated. It is denied that my client
purchased from you client any machines whatsoever. Rather, my client
helped your client to keep your machines in his godown/shop for disposal.
Therefore, it is denied that the cheque in question was issued in discharge
of any liability towards my client, as alleged in this para.
2. That the contents of para 2 are denied for want of knowledge. However, it
is reiterated that my client never issued any cheque, in the manner as
alleged by you.
3. That, in reply to para 3 of your legal notice, what is stated above is
reiterated. It is submitted that your client was not entitled to use that cheque
for encashment and deposit the same in his bank.
4. That the contents of para no. 4 & 5 are denied for want of knowledge.
However, it is reiterated that the cheque was not issued in discharge of any
liability towards my client to your client, rather it was handed over by my
client blank and the same was to be used only upon instructions of my
client.
5. That the contents of para 6 need no comments. However, it is denied that
my client committed any offence whatsoever.

In view of aforesaid facts and circumstances, you are being advised to further
advice your client to withdraw the said notice under reply and further advise him
not to drag my client in any frivolous litigation, failing which my client shall be
constrained to contest the suit against your client under the relevant provisions of
law, at the costs, risks and consequences of your client only.

GENERAL POWER OF ATTORNEY

Power of Attorney refers to a document wherein one party allows another party
to act on their behalf as their representative or proxy. Power of attorney is usually
utilised when a person is not in a position to act on their own and entrusts someone
else to handle their affairs on their behalf.

There can be two kinds of power of attorney. One is a general power of attorney
where the person authorised can act on behalf of the person manifesting the power
in all legal matters. The second is a special power of attorney where the person
authorised can act on behalf of the person, emphasising only particular matters.

The General power of attorney is a written authorisation to an organisation or


person to act on their behalf in all legal matters.

The General POA is an effective tool to be used while the person is out of the
country, physically or mentally incapable of managing the affairs, or if the person
is a minor.

A general POA gives a person or organisation broad powers to act on your behalf,
which includes:

• Entering into contracts.


• Handling business transactions.
• Operating business interests.
• Employing professional help.
• Settling claims and making gifts.

It is essential for an Attorney to keep accurate records of all transactions done on


your behalf and to provide you with periodic updates to keep you informed.

WILL

A will is a document made by a testator (a person making a will) before his/her


death. The will expresses the wishes of a testator that how his property is to be
distributed after death.

The document becomes legally enforceable only if it is written and signed by the
testator and at least two witnesses who have seen the testator signing the will. It
comes into effect only after the death of the testator and has no significance during
his lifetime. Though it is not compulsory to register a will, the testator may choose
to register it with the Registrar or Sub-Registrar of the area under whose
jurisdiction he/she resides.

It is always advisable to register a will as registering gives it a legal backing in


case of any disputes which may arise in the future, such as disputes regarding the
validity of the will. The testator can also choose to keep the will in safe custody.

What should a Will cover?

• Declaration in the beginning stating that it is your Last Will and that you
are making it in your senses and free from any pressure,
• Name, address and age of the testator,
• Decision and details regarding the property and documents,
• Names of beneficiaries - in a clear and unambiguous way,
• Legal guardian for children if they are minors,
• Name of the executor,
• Any other wishes such as particulars regarding funeral, or wishes regarding
care of your pets if any,
• Signatures of the testator and witnesses.

AGREEMENT TO SELL

An agreement of sale constitutes the terms and conditions of sale of a property by


the seller to the buyer. These terms and conditions include the amount at which
it is to be sold and the future date of full payment.
Being an important document in the sale transaction, it enables the process of sale
to go through without any hurdles.

An agreement for sale is an agreement to sell a property in future. This agreement


specifies the terms and conditions, under which the property in question will be
transferred.

An agreement for sale contains a promise to transfer a property in question in


future, on satisfaction of certain terms and conditions. So, this agreement itself
does not create any rights or interest in the property, for the proposed buyer.
Basically, transfer of ownership will take place at a future date or subject to
fulfillment of certain conditions.

Section 54 of TPA, 1882 has defined an agreement to sell as ‘A contract for the
sale of immovable property stating that the sale of the concerned property will
take place as per the terms mutually agreed upon by both parties.

In case of failure of the seller to sell or hand over possession of the property to
the buyer, the buyer gets a right of specific performance, under the provisions of
the Specific Relief Act, 1963. A similar right is available to the seller under the
agreement, for seeking specific performance from the buyer.

RELINQUISHMENT DEED

Relinquishment deed is a legal document/instrument where a legal heir gives up


or releases his legal rights in an inherited parental property for another legal heir
such as his mother, son, daughter, brother, sister, etc.

The term relinquishment refers to the abandoning and surrender of the rights, title,
and interest, by one co-owner of property for the other co-owners.
The relinquishment of property can only be done by someone who has a share in
the property. In case there is more than one owner in a property, either of the co-
owners can do relinquishment. For a valid relinquishment, the essentials of a valid
contract are to be followed other than the compensation.

Relinquishment of property cannot be done in the name of any third person other
than the already existing co-owner. Hence, for a valid relinquishment, the person
getting the relinquished property must be a legal heir.

As a relinquishment deed is a legal document by which a person formally gives


up his claim to another person, the said deed must be systematically executed and
registered as per Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908.

The main objectives of a relinquishment deed are to transfer the ownership of a


property from one party to another in a legal and transparent manner.

The deed helps to avoid disputes over the ownership of the property and ensures
that the transfer is done with the consent of all parties involved. It also helps to
establish the clear title of the property and can be used as evidence in case of any
legal disputes.

APPEAL NO. ___/2023

IN THE MATTER OF:

MURLI …. APPELLANT

Versus

SURENDER .... RESPONDENT


APPEAL U/O 43 RULE 1 CPC AGAINST THE IMPUGNED ORDER
DATED 07/07/2023_IN CS NO. 1234/2021 PASSED BY THE HON’BLE
COURT OF MS. RAJAT GOYAL, SCJ DWARKA COURTS IN THE CASE
TITLED AS SURENDER SINGH VS. MURLI KUMAR

MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:

1. That the present appeal has been preferred against the order dated 07.07.2023
passed by the Hon’ble Court of Ms. Rajat Goyal, CJ Dwarka Courts, Delhi in
a suit no. 1234/2021 titled as Surender Singh vs. Murli Kumar vide which the
Ld. Trial Court dismissed the application under order 9 rule 13 CPC filed by
the appellant. The copy of order dated 07.07.2023 is annexed herewith as
Annexure A-1.
2. The Ld. Trial Court has passed the impugned order without application of its
judicial mind. The Ld. Trial Court has failed to take into account even the most
basic principles of law and legal procedure and has passed the impugned order
totally neglecting the apparent facts / documents.
BRIEF FACTS OF THE CASE:

1. That the Respondent herein had filed a suit for recovery of Rs. 25,000/-
against the appellant along with pendent-lite and future Interest.
2. That vide Order dated 23/12/2021 the Hon’ble Court was pleased to pass
an ex-parte Order stating that the summons was served upon appellant on
23/03/2021, but the applicant/appellant failed to appear and was proceeded
ex- parte. That it is pertinent to mention here in that the address mentioned
in the recovery suit is completely different from the address given on the
Aadhar card of the appellant. The copy of the Aadhar card and Electricity
Bill are annexed herewith as Annexure A-2 (Colly). That appellant being
aggrieved by the said order dated 23.12.2021 has moved an application for
setting aside of the Ex-parte Order dated 23.12.2021. The copy of the Order
dated 23.12.2021 is annexed herewith as Annexure A-3.
3. That it is pertinent to mention herein that due to the incorrect address
mentioned on the summon the said summon were never served upon the
appellant due to which he could not appear before the Hon’ble Court. It is
submitted further that the correct address of the appellant i.e., WZ-15,
Delhi instead of WZ-51 Delhi due to which the summons never served
upon the appellant. The copy of the Suit C.S NO. 1234 /2021is annexed
here with as Annexure –A4 The Copy of Application of Order IX Rule 13
CPC is annexed here with as Annexure –A5.
4. It is pertinent to mention here in that even the report of the process server
dated 23/03/2021 is ambiguous. As it is apparent from his report that the
address mentioned in the suit is incorrect and it creates doubts in the mind
that after making call at the given phone number the appellant confirmed
his address and there after the summon was served upon the appellant by
the process server. On the other hand, the appellant is denying it completely
that he has not received any such calls from any process server regarding
the same.
5. That it is further submitted that on 18/04/2022 when the appellant and the
Counsel of the appellant inspected the Court file, they noticed that the
signature on the process server report is completely different from the
actual signature of the appellant. It is pertinent to mention here in that even
the report of the process server was not bearing any signature of the witness
to authenticate that the summons was served upon the appellant.
6. It is also apparent from the record of the Court file that no amended memo
of parties was filed and hence the process server has no authority to change
the address by himself to effectuate the summon served upon the appellant,
and if he does so it is considered to be the abuse process of law. It clearly
shows the malafide intent and connivance between the process server and
the plaintiff. It is further submitted that the signature purported to be the
receiving have not been done by the appellant and the same are forged. The
appellant has never been served with the notice/summons.
7. That the appellant has no knowledge/apprehension that the present suit has
been instituted by the Respondent against the appellant before this Hon’ble
Court.
8. That the prima facie case is in favor of the appellant and against the
respondent and if the ex-parte Order dated 23.12.2021 is not set- aside then
the appellant will suffer irreparable loss which may not be compensated by
any means.
9. It is submitted that the suit of the respondent is not maintainable as no cause
of action arises within the Jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court and the
plaintiff in order to harass/humiliate appellant has instituted this false and
bogus claim and have raised bald allegations against the appellant.
10. The application under order IX Rule 13 CPC, filed by the appellant herein
was dismissed by the Ld. Senior Civil Judge vide its order dated
07/07/2023 and being aggrieved by the said order, the appellant herein is
impugning the same on the following amongst other grounds-
GROUNDS

(A) Because the Ld. Trial Court has clearly ignored the address mentioned in
the memo of parties. It is pertinent to mention herein that further the Ld.
Trial Court fell in grave error while observing that there was a discrepancy
in the address as shown in the, electricity bill from the one which was
shown in the memo of parties. It is submitted that the said observation is
not correct as the perusal of the Aadhar card would suggest that the address
shown is not the same as mentioned in the electricity bill therefore, the
impugned order suffers from infirmity.
(B) Because the Ld. Trial Court miserably failed to assess the proper situation
as the present case was a perfect example of a situation where all the three
factors i.e., prima facie case, balance of convenience and irreparable loss
lies favour of the appellant herein and as such the application should have
been allowed in all respects.
(C) Because the Ld. Trial Court miserably failed to verify the signature of the
appellant to divulge the true facts whether the summons was properly
served upon the appellant.
11. That the present appeal has been filed within the period of limitation as
prescribed under the Limitation Act.

PRAYER

In the facts and circumstances as mentioned above, the applicant most humbly
prays this Hon’ble Court may kindly be pleased to set aside the Impugned Order
dated 07/07/2023 and allow the appellant to contest the suit no. 1234/2021 on
merits, in the interest of Justice.

Pass any, or further order as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper in the
facts and Circumstances of the case, in the interest of justice.
