JUDGMENT :
(V. KAMESWAR RAO, J.)
The challenge in this appeal is to a judgment and decree dated 23.12.2020 passed by the Court of LXXXII Additional City Civil and Sessions Judge, Bengaluru (in short, Trial Court/Sessions Judge) in Com.OS No.26336/2011, whereby the learned Sessions Judge has decreed the suit by stating as under:
“ORDER
The Suit of the Plaintiffs is decreed.
The Defendants No. 1 to 3 are hereby directed to pay jointly or severally Rs.3,70,30,050/- to the Plaintiff with interest at 15% per annum from the date of suit till rea
An assignment agreement is valid and enforceable where parties have acted under the agreement, and lack of counterclaims against payment liability affirms this position.
Breach of contract established as defendants failed to commence movie production, entitling plaintiff to recover funds advanced with interest.
Writ jurisdiction is not appropriate for resolving contractual disputes, especially when an arbitration clause exists in the agreement.
The High Court's reliance on criminal court findings regarding an alleged sale agreement was improper; a valid and enforceable contract requires rigorous proof, which the plaintiffs failed to provide....
Specific performance requires all parties' consent in an agreement; plaintiffs must prove readiness and willingness to fulfill contractual obligations.
The main legal point established is the interpretation of the nature of the agreement and the determination of the limitation period for filing the suit.
