This query is : Resolved
Does a court can reject a laminated letter,
even if the said laminated letter is in perfect condition and everything is very clearly visible. I have to laminate the same as the letter was very old and there was a fear that the letter may get spoiled or torn to pieces.?
2) In year 1887 when British Law was in operation in India , does the word HEIRS include sons only or sons
and daughters both. If sons only than under which British Act.Please specify.

There is no such reason to reject/deny such letter on the pretext of lamination done for the purpose of preservation and not for concealment of any information available on the document/ letter. Show the letter/document to some prudent local lawyer and take action as advised.

if COURT WANTS TO MARK IT AS exhibit OR WRITE ON IT, COURT CANNOT; DUE TO LAMINATION;
SO A PART OF IT CAN BE OPENED OUT AND THEN ALLOWED IN COURT.
OBJECTION OF COURT IS VALID.
DOCUMENT TOO IS VALID.

Yes, as rightly observed by expert Mr. Shroff, a part of the laminated document may be opened to facilitate marking of the document as exhibit, thus the laminated document can be marked as documentary evidence.
