Aunty Hauwa welcomed Sayyad with open arms and
listened as he poured out his heart. She smiled knowingly,
her eyes twinkling with ancient wisdom. "Fear not, dear
Sayyad," she said. "The threads of destiny are weaving
together. Your path will cross with the mysterious lady's
once more."
And so, Sayyad's journey began. With the guidance of
Aunty Hauwa and the support of his friends, he embarked
on a quest to find the mysterious lady and unravel the
mysteries of their entwined fates.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm
orange glow over the mystical realm, Sayyad felt an
inexplicable sense of hope. He knew that the journey
ahead would be fraught with challenges, but he was ready
to face them head-on, for he had caught a glimpse of his
destiny, and nothing would ever be the same again.
In the mystical realm of G-town, where the sun dipped
into the horizon and painted the sky with hues of crimson
and gold, Sayyad and Zulaihat left Aunty Hauwa's
enchanted cottage, laughing and teasing each other. The
air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming
wildflowers, and the soft chirping of magical creatures.
Upon arriving at Zulaihat's friend's house, a magnificent
structure built on a hill with towers that seemed to touch
the stars, Sayyad waited outside for permission to enter, as
was customary for a young man in the realm. After a
moment, Zulaihat appeared, her long, raven-black hair
flowing in the wind, and invited him in.
They entered the grand parlor, where Fatima's mother, a
wise and powerful sorceress, greeted them. Sayyad was
offered a chair, but he insisted on sitting on the carpet, a
sign of respect to the elders in the realm. He greeted
Fatima's mother with great respect, using the ancient
words of the Azurans.

CHAPTER ONE: THE ENCOUNTER

In the mystical realm of G town, where ancient magic
lingered in the air, Sayyad stumbled upon a mysterious
lady who would change his fate forever. Her ethereal
beauty captivated him, and he felt an inexplicable
connection, as if the universe had conspired to bring them
together.
As he stood there, entranced by her presence, the lady
vanished into thin air, leaving Sayyad bewildered and
yearning for more. Desperate to find her, he sought the
wisdom of his trusted friend and confidant, Musa.
Upon arriving at Musa's humble abode, Sayyad knocked
on the door with an air of urgency. Musa, sensing the
gravity of the situation, swiftly opened the door and
invited Sayyad in. Over steaming cups of enchanted tea,
Sayyad recounted his encounter with the mysterious lady.
Musa listened intently, his eyes sparkling with intrigue.
When Sayyad finished, Musa burst into a fit of laughter,
exclaiming, "By the ancient ones, Sayyad! You've finally
found your soulmate!"
Three weeks passed, and Sayyad's longing for the
mysterious lady only intensified. He became withdrawn,
and his friends and family began to worry. Seeking solace,
Sayyad visited his aunt, Aunty Hauwa, who possessed the
gift of foresight.

The maxim of the day

Lex fori

Literal meaning

Lex fori signifies the law of the court in which a proceeding is brought.

Interpretation of Lex fori

Lex fori refers to the choice of law. It specifies that the law of the jurisdiction or venue in which a legal action is filed applies if relevant. The law of the forum, or lex fori theory, is a method of addressing the problem of characterisation. The notion of characterization governs the issue of legal disagreement. The notion of characterization enables a court to determine which law will apply in a given situation. It will be difficult to apply the proper conflict of law rule until and unless the same is resolved. According to the theory, a particular issue should be classified in accordance with both the applicable domestic laws and the foreign norms of law in accordance with their nearest and closest domestic law.

Judicial decisions based on this legal maxim and relevant paragraphs

Ogden v. Ogden (1907)

In England, a French man (defendant) married an English woman (plaintiff). He did not, however, acquire his parents’ consent before marriage. According to French law, there is a rule which requires parental consent to marriage. As a result, this marriage was annulled by a French Court decision, based on the fact that the parent’s consent, as needed by French law, had not been acquired. After that, the defendant married a Frenchwoman in France. Later, the plaintiff filed a suit in England seeking to dissolve her marriage to the defendant due to his adultery and abandonment.

“After analysing the French requirement as a question of forum, the English Court adopted the English conflict rule, stating that the venue of marriage celebration is England. As a result, the Court declared the French law requiring parental consent to be unconstitutional and maintained the validity of marriage. However, when determining the validity of the same marriage, a French court used the French conflict rule. The Court pronounced the marriage null and void while outlining the requirement for parental authorization to marry. It’s up to the lex loci contractus to win and therefore the defendant’s subsequent marriage was bigamous and must be cancelled.”

The maxim of the day

Delegatus non potest delegare

Literal meaning

According to the doctrine of delegatus non potest delegare, “one who is delegated, cannot further re-delegated i.e. a delegate cannot further delegate.”

Interpretation of Delegatus non potest delegare

The maxim ‘delegatus non potest delegare’ is a rule of construction that states that a discretion conferred by a statute is prima facie intended to be exercised by the authority on which the statute has conferred it and no other authority, but that this intention may be negated by any contrary indications found in the statute’s language, scope, or object.
Judicial decisions based on this legal maxim and relevant paragraphs

Hemdard Dawakhana v. Union of India (1959)

The present case of Hemdard Dawakhana v. Union of India (1959) that appeared before the Supreme Court of India concerned whether conferment of power on the executive to add to diseases falling within the mischief of statute amounts to a delegation of legislative power or not.

“The Supreme Court ruled in this case that the delegation of legislative power by the legislature to the executive is not prohibited by our constitution. However, it is now generally established that the legislature cannot transfer fundamental legislative powers to the executive. It indicates that legislative policy must be established by the legislature and that the legislature cannot form a parallel legislature by handing this role to the administration. Delegation of legislative authority does not imply a waiver of important legislative tasks”

The maxim of the day

Damnum sine injuria

Damnum sine injuria is a maxim that refers to damage sustained by the plaintiff but no violation of a person’s legal rights.

Literal meaning

Damnum sine injuria literally translates as ‘loss or damage in terms of money, property, or any physical loss that occurs without breach of any legal right.’ Even if the conduct was purposeful and done with the aim of inflicting injury to someone else but without infringing on the person’s legal rights, it is not actionable in law.

Interpretation of Damnum sine injuria

Damages without injury, or damages in which there is no infringement of a legal right, are what this legal maxim alludes to. In the instance of damnum sine injuria, there is no basis of action because there is no breach of a legal right. There is an unspoken legal concept that there are no remedies for any moral violation until and unless a legal right is violated. Even though the wrongdoer’s behaviour was intentional, the court may refuse to award any damages.

Judicial decisions based on this legal maxim and relevant paragraphs

Gloucester Grammar School case (1410)

In this case, the defendant was a teacher at the plaintiff’s school who had quit his position after a brawl and opened a new school in the neighbourhood. Because of the teacher’s popularity, many students followed in his footsteps and enrolled at his competitor school. As a result, the plaintiff sustained financial damages, prompting the filing of an indemnity lawsuit in a court of law. The issue before the court was whether the defendant may be found accountable under the doctrine of ‘damnum sine injuria’ or not.

“The decision was made under the legal maxim of damnum sine injuria. It was solely based on the idea that a person who has not been the victim of a legal wrong is not entitled to compensation. In certain circumstances, compensation is sought on an arbitrary basis. However, in other cases, this philosophy appears to be incorrect, as many ofthe true criminals go unpunished, resulting in the loss of innocent people. Law conceptions change with time, and new notions are accepted as needed. Before judging a case, it is required to consider various additional factors in order to implement this approach. Before detaining a person, the backdrop, circumstance, and purpose must all be examined.”

The maxim of the day

Actori incumbit onus probandi

Actori incumbit onus probandi, a legal maxim in Latin, states that before a plaintiff at law or a complaint at equity may win their case, they must establish a solid title or claim.

Literal meaning

The literal meaning of the legal maxim is that the burden of proof lies on the plaintiff.

Interpretation of Actori incumbit onus probandi

The broad idea that the party who raises an issue has the burden of evidence is derived from the Latin phrase actori incumbit onus probandi. It is a necessary premise for a fair trial since it requires both the claimant and the respondent to support any factual charges made on them. In a civil case, the court conducts the investigation, but the plaintiff is responsible for completing it and submitting all proof and evidence to the court. Filling out a case is not enough to win a lawsuit, one must also back it up with solid and sufficient evidence to persuade the jury. The prosecutor has the burden of proof in criminal cases. The scope and subject matter of the burden of proof might cover subject matters such as evidence and pleadings.

Judicial decisions based on this legal maxim and relevant paragraphs

Sh. Kedar Nath Kohli v. Sh. Sardul Singh (2003)

The decision was made in the case of Sh. Kedar Nath Kohli v. Sh. Sardul Singh (2003) has stated that the rule of law being ‘actori incumbit onus probandi,’ signifies that the plaintiff or the prosecution has to bear the burden of proof. The plaintiff’s case must stand on its own, and the plaintiff cannot claim that his claim is proven because the defendant’s argument is weak.

25/10/2024

The maxim of the day

Actus legis nemini facit injuriam

Actus legis nemini facit injuriam is a well-established Latin maxim that signifies ‘The act of the law does injury to no one’.

Literal meaning

The literal interpretation of the maxim is that no one is prejudiced by a judicial action and legitimate action does not need any qualifications. There is a prevalent assumption that initiating a lawsuit against another party will not affect the second party (other than a frivolous action). As a result, no one may be harmed by a legal action. An act of legislation should be restricted in its application so that it does not infringe on anyone’s rights.

Interpretation of Actus legis nemini facit injuriam

Particular laws that are in the public interest may be harmful to some people. However, there are no current therapies for such harm, because the law applies equally to everyone, modifications in the law cannot be made to benefit a small number of individuals. When a law-given authority is abused, the law puts the person misusing it in the same position as if they had behaved entirely without authority in the first place and this, it has been remarked, is a just principle based on the maxim that the law wrongs no man.

A tenant whose house is damaged by fire or storm is not obligated to reconstruct the house to the detriment of himself, even if he is not dismissed from his tenancy to the detriment of his landlord. Unless he makes a covenant of commitment to repair and maintain the premises, except in the event of a fire, tempest, or other disasters, he will be required to rebuild if the premises are destroyed by fire or other casualties. If he is a lessee, he must pay the rent until the end of his term, or if he is a tenant, from year to year, until he determines the tenancy by notice. The landlord is also not obligated to rebuild in the event of a fire, even if he may have insured the property and received payment from the insurance company. To protect the renter against all of these hassles, he must include a particular clause in the lease or agreement. The legal maxim, Actus legis nemini facit injuriam, will be applied in this situation.
