https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=169698 Section 4 of the Bombay City Civil Court Act, 1948 was treated as valid conditional legislation because the statute itself fixed the policy and outer limit of enhanced pecuniary jurisdiction, leaving only the timing of its operation to the government. The Act was also held to fall within provincial legislative competence: the power to legislate on administration of justice and the constitution and organisation of courts was read as authorising the creation of civil courts with general civil jurisdiction, while any overlap with central subjects was incidental. The impugned Act and notification were therefore upheld, and the City Civil Court's jurisdiction was recognised. en-us Wed, 20 Dec 1950 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 01 May 2015 11:12:58 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=169698 Section 4 of the Bombay City Civil Court Act, 1948 was treated as valid conditional legislation because the statute itself fixed the policy and outer limit of enhanced pecuniary jurisdiction, leaving only the timing of its operation to the government.
