The Calcutta Weekly Notes Monday November 22 1943

The Madras statute and charter invested the Madras Supreme Court with such jurisdiction and authority as the Supreme Court of Fort William in Begal possessed and accordingly the judment under notice follows the method of first determining the limits of the juridiction of the Calcutta High Court and then holding those limits to be the limits of the jurisdiction of the Court at Madras. [...] In other words the judgment says that the jurisdiction of the Madras High Court is what it is because the same is the jurisdition of the Calcutta High Court. [...] Readers will therefore find in the judgment an ehaustive review of the powers of the Cacutta High Court in regard to the writ of 5vi THE CALCUTTA WEEKLY NOTES XLV. [...] 168 (2) which relates to the settlement of fair and equitable rent enjoins the revenue euthritits to have regard to" the provisions of the Act the direction does not make it compulsory for them to observe the 2 as. [...] The administration of the particular insovency therefore was brought to an end by the Court's order granting the absolute oder of discharge and therefore there was no longer power in the Official Receiver to bring any of the properties of the ex-isolvent to sale.
