JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) The impugned order has been passed by the learned Judge in the trial Court in a slipshod manner
without adverting to the issues germane and the
importance is given to extraneous factors. While dealing
with an application for temporary injunction, the learned
Judge in the trial Court proceeded to hold that the suit is
not maintainable which really forecloses further avenues
to the plaintiff.
(2.) The impugned order may be segregated in three parts. Firstly, the Court found that it has no territorial
jurisdiction to entertain the suit. Secondly, the learned
Judge hold that the suit is not competent having filed
without taking leave under Section 80 (2) of the Code of
Civil Procedure and thirdly, the manner in which the order
dated December 21, 2018 was passed by the
predecessor, is not proper and in conformity with the
legal provision.
(3.) Before embarking the journey on the legality and infirmity of the impugned judgment, it would be
appropriate to deal with the nature of the claim made in
the suit filed by the plaintiff/appellant in the trial Court.
The Title Suit no. 27 of 2018 is filed by the
plaintiff/appellant in the Court of learned District Judge at
Alipore for an accounts from the defendant and the
delivery of the products registered by them and
permanent and mandatory injunction restraining the
defendants and their men and agents from continuing
and repeating any infringement of any patent of the
plaintiff/appellant or from doing any act to injure such
intellectual property and also to stop the registration of
battery operated eco-friendly e-rikshaws. Several
proceedings were initiated in relation thereto before
different Courts and the same has been adumbrated in
several paragraphs of the plaint and ultimately in the
cause of action paragraph it is stated that the same arose
on February 24, 2002 within the jurisdiction of the Court
against the defendants or the Government and its
instrumentality.;
