The Calcutta Weekly Notes Law Notes and Notes of Cases of the Calcutta High Court and of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and the English Law Courts Monday January 18 1915

The Act provided for the serving of the notice and the summons on the occupier of the premises in question and it might well be that the occupier was not in any way wosible for the existence of the nuisance. [...] Among other things the contract of sale provided that (4) Should the goods or any portion thereof not arrive from any loss of vessel or unavoiable cause the tender of the buyer of the isurance policy with the bill-of-lading or other document which with the policy will enable the buyer to recover the amount of the insurance from the under-writers shall be deemed a good tender of the goods. [...] The docments should be ordinarily the bill-of-lading the invoice and the policy of insurance which will entitle the buyer to obtain on the arrival of the ship delivery of the goods or Will enable him to recover on this policy the value of the goods if lost. [...] The question in the case was whether the Plaitiffs were entitled to recover rent for the period between the acquisition of their title to the tenure and the application for registration in the landlord's sherista. [...] The entry in the record-of-rights gave them only the presumption of possession under the title they claimed ; but it could not give them the right to receive rent which was barred by the statutory provisions of the Rent Law and such entry could rot take the place of the procedure which the Law has laid down as a condition-precedent to the collection of rent.
