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 Short Notes of Important Decisions of other High Courts in India Monday November 29 1937

On the 23rd of November last members of the High Court Bar had the dullness of old age or middle life as the case might be unexpectedly relieved by an experience of the long-forgotten joys of a half-school. [...] If we return to the subject of the Long Vacation it is not because repetition is the essence of journalism but because the too early closing of the Court has now become a major grievance not only of the members of the profession but also of the litigant public. [...] In the circumstances the majority of the members of the High Court Bar are consigned every year to a month of unprofitable idleness fretting at the total waste of a substantial proportion of their holidays. [...] On the appointment of the late Lord Cave he was a member of the committee for providing facilities in ondon for the study of the laws of the Empire. [...] Whatever may be the exact nature of the right which the allottee acquires between the date of the allotment and the date of the entry of his name in the register it is diffcult to regard the issue of the shares to him by allotment as amounting to a transfer of property by the Company to him.
