Non-production of Departmental Inquiry Report in the evidence by Defendants has raised adverse presumption against them, as envisaged in Article 129(g) of Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984. Loss of consortium; that is, deprivation of the benefits of a family relationship due to injuries or death caused by a tortfeasor. Well known rules about "foreseeability",causation and but for explained; if any reasonable person by applying his ordinary prudence can foresee a loss that can arise from his act(s), then he owes a duty of care to others [claimant] and is liable for the negligent act that has caused damaged to the other person (claimant). Similarly, causation is the linkage between the negligent act [breach of duty of Care] that has resulted in causing injury and the "but for" test if simply put, means, that the injury would not have occurred without the defendant's negligence. Legislative amendments are proposed.

It is proved that Defendant No.3 was the sole beneficiary of embezzled amount, which landed in her bank account. Therefore, the stance of Defendant No.3 has been rejected that the amount was embezzled by her husband (Defendant No.1) who has since disappeared and the said Defendant No.3 is not a beneficiary. In the circumstances, Article 129 of the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984 squarely applies to the facts of the present case.
Defendant Bank has been also held liable to compensate the Plaintiff for the losses it suffered, as admittedly relationship between Defendant No.2-Bank and Plaintiff is of a fiduciary nature and thus former (Defendant No.2) owed a duty of care to the latter (Plaintiff) that its bank account had to be maintained in a professional and diligent manner. Nature of duty of Defendant No.2 implies exercise of due diligence and by making payment of such a substantial amount on the basis of a Request Letter containing some alternations and that too in the name of Defendant No.3 (the beneficiary of said amount) with which the Plaintiff-the customer of Defendant No.2 had no business relationship, latter (said Defendant No.2) had acted negligently.

Claim under Risk Sale is only tenable when there is an enforceable agreement, that is, a contract as defined in subsection (h) of Section 2 of the Contract Act, 1872, exists between the parties, which is subsequently breached by Defendant.
In order to succeed in his claim, the Plaintiff has to show that what measures it took to mitigate its losses before arranging or manufacturing the requisite goods / gunny bags for Defendants, if at all, the Plaintiff was under an impression or understanding that it had been actually awarded the contract. Any prudent businessman or a corporate entity like Plaintiff would have addressed a notice or any other type of communication to the Defendants about the fact that the Plaintiff was about to make preparation or commence production of subject goods / jute bags for supplying them to Defendants within the given time frame.
In response to Plaintiff bid, the Defendant by its correspondence reduced the price of gunny bags with an explicit condition that the communication is without any commitment. It is also an admitted position that other requisite formalities in such type of tender were never completed. For instance, Plaintiff was never issued a letter of intent nor the latter submitted any performance bond, which fact has been acknowledged by Plaintiff

A remedy available to a person under the Workmen Compensation Act, 1923, cannot operate as an absolute bar for seeking a remedy under an ordinary civil jurisdiction by filing a suit.
Article 22 and 24 of the Limitation Act, 1908, where under an action to seek compensation for an injury should be instituted within one year, is not applicable in the instant case, for the reason that Plaintiff was made to run from pillar to post for redressal of his grievance but without any success. Plaintiff was lastly operated upon on 15.10.1987 and the suit was filed on 17.11.1987, hence the cause of action and so is the grievance is of continuous nature. Well entrenched principle that if a person has a right to claim compensation for a wrong done to him, he should also have a remedy, has been attracted in the instant case.
The Defendants, who are Employer [Client], Contractor and sub-contractors, respectively, were jointly and severally held liable to pay damages for the negligent acts, which caused the Plaintiff serious injury and partial disability of permanent nature. Damages have been awarded by invoking the principle of composite negligence.

No party is allowed to set up a new case in evidence, which is beyond his pleadings.
Defendant was appointed as handling agent of Plaintiff in respect of one of latter's go-downs, inter alia, with an express obligation to submit periodical Reserve Stock Account (RSA), which Defendant failed to submit. Defendant being bailee in terms of Section 161 of Contract Act, 1872, was responsible for delivery of goods as well as keeping a proper account for the same. Defendant held liable for the reported short fall in the rice stock and bardanas (wheat / gunny bags).
Concept of the Best Evidence Rule' vis-??-vis Article 129, Illustration (g) of the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984 has also been discussed; that if a party relying upon a best piece of evidence but withholds it while leading evidence, then it will be presumed that under some sinister motive the best piece of evidence was not produced.

There is a distinction between a routine board resolution that authorizes a person / Officer of a Company to do certain acts, including instituting a legal proceeding and a non-routine resolution as contemplated under Section 164 of the Companies Ordinance, 1984 (the Ordinance 1984). Similarly, a special resolution passed under Section 172 of the Companies Ordinance 1984, which has been defined in Section 2 sub-section (36) of the Ordinance 1984, is also of distinct nature and different import. For a routine and a procedural resolution as mentioned hereinabove, there is no requirement that the same should be filed with the SECP (Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan).
If a board resolution is passed without giving prior notice to the Directors of the Board then the meeting convened and the resolution passed there at, both are held to be invalid and not in accordance with the Ordinance 1984. Even otherwise, if a Board Meeting is allowed to be held without prior notice to other directors, then it would lead to a chaotic situation and it will be against the basic principle of good corporate governance, which cannot be permitted.
A suit instituted on behalf of a Plaintiff-Company without a valid authorization simply means that the plaint is not existing for all intents and purposes.

Marine Insurance Policy is assignable and consequently an Insurance Company after being subrogated, can sue the tortfeasor in its own name, in terms of Sections 130A read with 135A, of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882.
Foreseeability Causation and but for is that if any reasonable person by applying his ordinary prudence can foresee a loss that can arise from his act(s) then he owes a duty of care to others [claimant] and is liable for the negligent act that has caused damaged to the other person (claimant). Similarly, causation is the linkage between the negligent act [breach of duty of care] that has resulted in causing injury and the but for test if simply put means, that the injury would not have occurred without the defendant is negligence.
Subject Marine Insurance Policy being a 'time policy' had covered the risk, while the Vessel in question was dry-docked and subsequently damaged.

Plaint rejected by invoking legal maxim ???actio personalis moritur cum persona??? and Article 36 of the Limitation Act, 1908.
Legal maxim ???actio personalis moritur cum persona??? (a personal right of action dies with the person) ??? death extinguishes liability in Tort, is enforceable in Pakistan subject to certain exceptions. First, where a tortfeasor???s estate is benefited by the wrong done, then an action would lie against his representatives, secondly, when already a decree is passed, inter alia, for damages, the legal representatives / heirs of a deceased can continue the litigation, thirdly, if in a service case, the Trial Court has reinstated a petitioner in service, which is overturned by an appellate court and in the intervening period, person dies, his legal heirs can continue the litigation, because if a Higher Forum restores the Order of Trial Court, then the legal heirs would at least be entitled for the service benefits. However, no suit can be filed after the death of a person for his individual acts, against his legal heirs.

??? Any shortcoming in compliance of Order 29 Rule 1 is curable, for instance, if a formal Board Resolution is not there, then the Articles of Association and / or internal record [un-rebutted one] like Note Sheets, can be taken into account to determine about the authority of a person instituting a legal proceeding / suit. Articles of Association empower the Board of Directors to institute and defend legal proceedings; Articles 106 and 113, deal with quorum and at least two Directors can pass an effective and valid Board resolution. Since Noting sheet produced in the evidence confirms that Directors of the Plaintiff Corporation had discussed the issue and authorized the filing of instant suit, which was subsequently filed by the person authorized in the above document, the conclusion is that the suit was properly and competently filed. Noting sheet can be taken as Board Resolution by Circulation.
??? If the very suit has been unauthorizedly and incompetently filed, that is, neither any authorization from the Board of Directors exists, nor the Articles of Association provide such authority, then such a defect remains incurable, even by a subsequent ratification.

With the passage of time, the principle governing immunity has undergone a change. National Courts in different jurisdictions, specially where there exists constitutional dispensation, have generally narrowed down the scope of immunity, whether constitutional, diplomatic or any other type of immunity. One of the reasons for adopting such view, while interpreting the law or clauses relating to immunity is that the concept of immunity is to be balanced with the accountability and those rights guaranteed as fundamental and human rights.

MUHAMMAD AMIN HOOSEIN (Plaintiff) VS EXPORT PROCESSING ZONES AUTHORITY (Defendant)
Territorial jurisdiction of Sindh High Court was questioned by Defendant, primarily on the ground that Defendant-Company has been shifted from Karachi to Lahore, therefore, a foreign company / Plaintiff cannot enforce an International Arbitral Award by filing a suit in Sindh High Court. The crucial documentary evidence shows that when the suit proceeding was filed for enforcement of the Award under Section 6 of the Recognition and Enforcement (Arbitration Agreements and Foreign Arbitral Awards) Act, 2011, the Defendant had its registered office in Karachi and even Annual Report of the Company also shows that the Management notice for convening the Annual General Meeting was also to be held at Karachi. Consequently, it has been held, that Sindh High Court has jurisdiction in the matter.
