The brief facts of the case as follows: This is the franchise based courier business. one person approached the corporate office for the doing the Courier business as he filled the application form along with the security deposit of Rs 15,000/-. the same was registered and giving him a franchise code. After consultation with regional office, without having any franchise agreement he started the business with out knowledge of corporate office. After due inquiry the area of operations has overlapped so Regional office informed that person to due to this reason the agreement is with held by the corporate office & informed that person to stop the business. but that person did not ask the regional office &continued to do the business. After that the regional Manager personally visit that franchise office, & remove the sign board and again ask him to stop the business without having the franchise agreement & to stop to accepting the consignments.Againest the said action by the R.O he filed the recovery suit for compensation & damages.He produced the delivery challans, some receipts, security diposits, and some invoice & appointments letters of his staffs. After hearing the case & examines the wittiness the hon'ble sub court treated it as agency and act of that franchise is treated as implied agency under section 186& 187 of Indian Contract Act& awarded Rs 4 lakh as a compensation & damages.

Defamation case

Dear Sir

I am a freelance Events Manager. I recently organised a event for a client. The client requested for an arrangement for 450 people -> tending to 500

On the day of the event, 1000 people turned up from the client side. Eventually the system could not support the strength. However, the client shouted on top of his voice in the middle of all guest complaining about the lack of proper arrangements & highlighting the in-sufficient food etc with no mention to the fact that his guests had far exceeded the number mentioned to us in the work statement.

I believe that this incident has caused a high level of damage on my reputation as a events organiser & has caused a huge loss of potential business.

I want to file a defamation case against them. Can you please advice me on this. I am in Faridabad

Unfair termination & forced resignation by a pvt sector bank

Dear All,

One of my friends was working with a reputed MNC bank. After almost 2 years of service, the bank terminated him without any reason.He filed a writ petiotion in the High Court challenging the termination order and simultaneously also filed a case at the Labour Court.The ALC could not get his job back or provide compensation to the employee , but managed to persuade the bank officials to provide a relieving letter to the employee , on the condition that the employee submits a back dated letter of resignation to the company.Since almost 10 months had elapsed without an employment, my friend accepted the relieving letter in hope that atleast he has some chance to seek employment on the basis of a clean service certificate.The question here is has the employee lost the right to challenge the original order of termination issued by the bank ??? Isnt this a case of arm twisting tactics by the company inorder to force employees to submission so that they get away with unfair practices ??? My friend was the only bread winner of the family with 3 dependants. Does the court expect that the aggrieved employee has no right to employment till his case is decided in the court of law ??? If the employee doesnot earn for him and his family , there will be a question of survival, let alone fight for justice !!!

I request the expert panel to submit their valuable comments on this very important case.

Regards,

Rajeev
