https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=100264 Section 15 of the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act does not bar a magistrate from entertaining a complaint under section 630 of the Companies Act, because the two statutes address different wrongs: eviction from public premises and wrongful withholding of company property. Section 630 also extends to retired or ex-employees who continue to withhold company property after termination, as the right to possession is co-terminus with employment and the provision covers both wrongful obtaining and wrongful withholding. The provision was further upheld against an article 14 challenge, since the classification of company officers and employees has an intelligible differentia and a rational nexus with the object of protecting company property. en-us Thu, 24 Mar 1983 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 17:36:22 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=100264 Section 15 of the Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act does not bar a magistrate from entertaining a complaint under section 630 of the Companies Act, because the two statutes address different wrongs: eviction from public premises and wrongful withholding of company property.
