Child Custody case

Child Custody Case: High Court of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh Supports Mother's Right to Custody Despite Financial Disparity In a recent landmark judgment, the High Court of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh made a crucial observation regarding child custody cases. The Court emphasized that financial affluence of the father should not be the sole determining factor in awarding custody of the child.

The welfare of the child, as per the Guardian and Wards Act of 1890, involves more than just physical well-being—it includes emotional and moral welfare. Mother...

The Supreme Court reiterated that a sale deed executed without the payment of consideration is not a valid “sale” under Section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 (“TPA”). Such a deed is void and non-use. Reference was drawn from the case of Kewal Krishnan v. Rajesh Kumar and Others, (2022) 18 SCC 489, where it was also held that the payment of price is an essential part of a sale. If a sale deed in respect of an immovable property is executed without payment of price and if it does not provide for the payment of price at a future date, it is not a sale at all in the eyes of law, the court said in Kewal Krishnan.
