Mohammad Ali and others Vs. Abdul Jabber alias Vatesh and others

It is well settled that an order of remand is not to be made as a matter of course. Remand should not be ordered merely to enable a party to fill up a lacuna caused by his own negligence or laches. At the same time, where the Court is satisfied that a party was prevented from effectively contesting the suit for reasons not attributable to deliberate or culpable conduct on his part, and that denial of an opportunity to contest would cause substantial prejudice, the Court may, in the interest of justice, exercise its discretion to remand the matter.

A compromise between some of the parties cannot, in law, operate to extinguish or adversely affect the independent rights claimed by non-consenting parties without adjudication of their claims.

Prof. Dr. Abul Kashem. -Versus- Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and Firms and others.

i) Dispatching notice packages via a private commercial courier agency constituted "personal service." This argument misconstrues the legal nature of personal service. Personal service in company law requires direct physical delivery by an officer, agent, or employee acting directly on behalf of the company to the recipient member. When a company hands over thousands of sealed envelopes to an independent third-party commercial courier company, it engages an intermediary logistics provider. The courier`s sub-agents or delivery staff are not company officers delivering notice personally; they are executing a contract of carriage. Courier delivery cannot be conflated with personal delivery. ii) Equally untenable is the proposition that courier delivery is equivalent to "service by post." In statutory construction, "post" refers specifically to the statutory postal system operated under the authority of the State (e.g., the Post Office Act). The legal deeming presumption established under Article 86(2) and reflected in Section 27 of the General Clauses Act, 1897 attaches strictly to letters placed in the official postal network with postage prepaid. Courts cannot stretch clear contractual text to read private commercial courier services into the word "post." While modern commercial practice frequently uses courier networks for speed and tracking, corporate constitutions must be amended through proper general body resolutions if modern delivery methods are to be adopted. Until the Articles are formally altered, the company remains bound by its existing contractual provisions.

Manikganj Power Generations Limited.-Versus- Yew Choon Private Limited

i) The distinction between the legal burden and the evidential burden must be carefully maintained. The legal burden of establishing the claim remained throughout upon the respondent as claimant. However, once the respondent/claimant had adduced evidence capable of supporting its case, the Tribunal was fully entitled to examine whether the petitioner had produced evidence explaining or rebutting facts lying particularly within its “own knowledge”. The Tribunal`s observations regarding the inadequacy of the petitioner`s evidence, therefore, relate to the weight and sufficiency of the rebuttal evidence rather than to any impermissible reversal of the legal burden of proof. ii) In substance, the petitioner`s grievance is that the Tribunal ought to have attached greater weight to the petitioner`s evidence and lesser weight to the respondent`s evidence. Such a contention goes to the appreciation of evidence rather than to the legality of the award. Section 43 does not permit this Court to undertake a fresh evaluation of the evidence for the purpose of determining whether another conclusion would have been preferable. iii) After considering the overall outcome of the arbitration, the Tribunal regarded the respondent as the substantially successful party and exercised the statutory discretion vested in it under section 38 by directing the petitioner to bear the respondent`s costs. Such an exercise of discretion cannot be said to be irrational merely because another tribunal, or even this Court, might have apportioned the costs differently. To interfere with the award of costs in the present case would require this Court to substitute its own discretion for that of the Tribunal. Such an approach would be inconsistent with the limited supervisory jurisdiction conferred by section 43 of the Arbitration Act and would undermine the legislative policy of according finality to arbitral awards.

Rokaiya Nasrin, -Versus- Neptune Cold Storage Ltd. and others

If the pre-emption provision was intended to protect the existing shareholders against the introduction of an outsider, a shareholder intending to exercise that right would reasonably be expected to assert it when the proposed transfer came to his or her knowledge. Yet, even after the Petitioner expressly sought rectification by her letters dated 21.01.2016 and 09.02.2016, no shareholder came forward either to purchase the shares or to object on the ground that he or she intended to exercise the right of pre-emption. Nor has any competing claim been asserted throughout the prolonged pendency of the present proceeding. In these circumstances, the Court is not persuaded that the pre-emption clause can now be invoked merely as a technical objection to the Petitioner`s claim when the very persons for whose benefit the provision was incorporated have, with full knowledge of the transaction and the Petitioner`s claim, neither exercised nor asserted the right for many years. Their prolonged and conscious inaction, in the circumstances of the present case, amounts to waiver or acquiescence in the transfer and substantially undermines the Respondents` reliance upon the pre-emption provision.

Government of Bangladesh and others. Vs. Khulna Divisional Ship owners Groups, Khulna.

The effect of section 28A of the Arpita Sampatti Protyarpan Ain, 2001, therefore, is that a property included in the Kha Schedule on the Gazette loses its character as vested property and is deemed never to have been included in the vested-property list. However, such cancellation does not, by itself, confer title upon any private claimant; the title, possession or other rights in respect of the property may still be determined in accordance with the prevailing law. The provision also preserves the right of the Government or any person to seek an appropriate remedy under the prevailing law in respect of any right, title or interest in the property.
