https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279479 Section 4 of the Bombay City Civil Court Act, 1948 was treated as valid conditional legislation because the Act itself fixed the outer limit of the enhanced pecuniary jurisdiction and left only its commencement to notification. The provision was therefore not an impermissible delegation of legislative power. The Act was also upheld as within provincial legislative competence: the power to administer justice and constitute courts was held to include establishing courts with general civil jurisdiction, while the jurisdiction entries were read as permitting special provisions for specified subjects. The legislation and notification were sustained, and the City Civil Court remained competent to entertain the suit. en-us Wed, 20 Dec 1950 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 19 Mar 2019 10:45:27 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279479 Section 4 of the Bombay City Civil Court Act, 1948 was treated as valid conditional legislation because the Act itself fixed the outer limit of the enhanced pecuniary jurisdiction and left only its commencement to notification.
