https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=472513 Jurisdiction over a tenant's injunction suit concerning alleged tenancy rights in car-parking spaces is determined from the plaint averments, assumed to be true. Where the plaint alleges tenancy, payment of rent, and interference with possession, the dispute falls within the expression "relating to recovery of possession" under the Presidency Small Cause Courts Act. Its overriding clause prevails over the stated exclusion, while the government-premises exception does not apply without proof that the premises are governed by the relevant eviction law. Composite tenancy may also attract rent-control jurisdiction. The public-premises law does not bar injunction relief where it provides no tenant remedy. Exclusive jurisdiction therefore lies with the Small Causes Court, not the City Civil Court. en-us Fri, 02 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 14 Oct 2026 14:26:18 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=472513 Jurisdiction over a tenant's injunction suit concerning alleged tenancy rights in car-parking spaces is determined from the plaint averments, assumed to be true.
