RG KAR RAPE CASE SENTENCE

See the Sections application, default of fine, compensation, how judge orders for compensation and will it run concurrently or consequetively

@CurrentLegalGK

Now those who are saying justice is not done death penalty must be the only option, we I don't know whether death penalty should have been imposed on him or not however what I know is that this case was tried expeditiously and was given priority and if you see other similar cases with no limelight are still pending.

SC took suo motu, Authority ke dar se sub kuch possible hai.

Justice delayed is justice denied is not just because of infrastrucutre but also because of the will of pillars of the criminal justice system, if they have that zeal they can provide justice fairly and speedily as much they can.

Read the Order it is based on new criminal laws.

P.S. I have no sympathy with convict but with victim and society at large.

BNSS Gives Wider Protection To Accused Of Unsound Mind Or Intellectual Disability, Will Apply Retrospectively: Kerala High Court

“As I discussed above, Chapter XXVII of the Sanhita has given wider protection to a person of unsound mind or a person suffering from intellectual disability. where  two persons suffering from a mental disability or intellectual disability are dealt with differently, one under the Code, and the other under the Sanhita, it amounts to a violation of Article 14 of the Constitution. Among equals, the law should be equal and equally administered and should be treated alike. The guarantee of 'equal protection' under Article 14 is a guarantee of equal treatment of persons in 'equal circumstances'. To preserve the fundamental right of an individual, the provisions of the Sanhita can be extended retrospectively to any proceedings initiated prior to 1.7.2024.

🏕"The law on fixtures in India deals with when personal property attached to land becomes part of the land. It's based on the doctrine of fixtures, which is a legal principle that determines whether a movable property (chattel) becomes immovable property.

The doctrine of fixtures is important in property law because it affects ownership rights, real estate transactions, and how property is treated in legal contexts like leases, sales, and inheritance."

Suit For Specific Performance Doesn't End With Passing Of Decree; Court Retains Power To Annul Decree Or Extend Time : Supreme Court
https://www.livelaw.in/supreme-court/supreme-court-judgment-suit-for-specific-performance-section-28-specific-relief-act-281603

Sardar Mohar Singh v. Mangilal, (1997)  Therein, it was observed that the Court does not lose its jurisdiction after the grant of decree for specific performance. Further, Section 28 indicates that till the execution of a decree, the Trial Court retains its power to deal with the decree of specific performance.

Maxim: Functus Officio/ Coram Non judice is partially not applicable here.

@CurrentLegalGK

The Court acknowledged that various High Courts and the Supreme Court have delivered conflicting judgments, and the issue remains res integra. The relevant question is as follows:
Can there be a decree stating that if the plaintiff fails to deposit the balance sale consideration within the stipulated time, the suit shall automatically stand dismissed? If such a decree exists, does the concerned court become functus officio?
This question, however, was not answered in the judgment.

My Question:
Even procedural rights are rights, and in cases involving substantive rights, if a person belonging to a different High Court jurisdiction with conflicting views is deprived of their rights due to the nature of such judgments, while another High Court provides relief in a similar scenario, it highlights the need for a unified judicial approach.

In a system where the apex court sits at the top of a triangular integrated judiciary, it is imperative to resolve such legal lacunae. The judiciary must take proactive steps to address these ambiguities. In cases where the opportunity arises to decide such issues, the courts should either provide clarity or refer the matter to a larger bench capable of resolving these residual issues that may arise in the future.

Courts cannot simply wait for appeals to make their way through the system, especially given the prolonged time it takes for cases to progress from the district level to the apex level. The resulting hardship for litigants, particularly in the civil justice system, is immense due to delays in final case disposal. When unresolved legal issues compound this difficulty, they cause even greater confusion and distress. It is far better to settle the law proactively than to allow chaos to persist.
