Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
Before enforcing a foreign judgment or decree, the party enforcing it must ensure that the foreign judgment or decree must not fall under the prohibited cases of CPC. If the foreign judgment or decree falls under any of these tests, it will not be regarded as conclusive and hence not enforceable in India. Under Section 13 of CPC, there are six cases when a foreign judgment shall not be conclusive. It states that a foreign judgment shall be conclusive as to any matter thereby directly adjudicated upon between the same parties or between parties under whom they or any of them claim litigating under the same title except,—
  • Where it has not been pronounced by a Court of competent jurisdiction;
  • Where it has not been given on the merits of the case;
  • Where it appears on the face of the proceedings to be founded on an incorrect view of international law or a refusal to recognize the law of India in cases in which such law is applicable;
  • Where the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained are opposed to natural justice;
  • Where it has been obtained by fraud;
  • Were it sustains a claim founded on a breach of any law in force in India.  In Brijlal Ramjidas v. Govindram
Gordhandas Seksaria, Supreme Court held that Section 13 speaks not only of “Judgment” but “any matter thereby directly adjudicated upon”. The word ‘any’ clearly shows that all the adjudicative parts of the judgment are equally conclusive.
Q. The Hindu Marriage Act was used to legally wed Ravi and Radha, and their union was still going strong. Later, without getting a divorce from Radha, Ravi wed Meera, another woman. What are Ravi's bigamy's legal repercussions?
  • a)
    According to Section 13 of the CPC, the foreign award is conclusive and enforceable in India.
  • b)
    Since the foreign award was not made on the basis of the merits of the case, it cannot be enforced in India.
  • c)
    No, because it goes against the principles of natural justice, the foreign award cannot be implemented in India.
  • d)
    If the foreign judgment was rendered by a court with sufficient authority, then it is enforceable in India.
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Community Answer
Direction: Read the following passage carefully and answer the questio...
Explanation:

Section 13 of CPC:
- According to Section 13 of the CPC, a foreign judgment shall be conclusive as to any matter directly adjudicated upon between the same parties or parties claiming under them, except in certain cases.

Bigamy Case:
- In the case of Ravi marrying Meera without getting a divorce from Radha, this would constitute bigamy as per the Hindu Marriage Act.

Enforceability of Foreign Judgment:
- In this scenario, the foreign judgment regarding Ravi's bigamy would not fall under the prohibited cases of Section 13 of the CPC.
- As long as the foreign judgment was pronounced by a court of competent jurisdiction and was given on the merits of the case, it would be considered conclusive and enforceable in India.

Conclusion:
- Therefore, in the case of Ravi's bigamy, the foreign judgment would be legally enforceable in India as long as it meets the criteria mentioned in Section 13 of the CPC.

Section 10 of Civil Procedure Code deals with Doctrine of Res Sub-Judice. ‘Res’ means matter or litigation and Sub-Judice means pending (under judgment). Conjoining the two, it implies that the rule of Res Sub-Judice relates to a matter which is pending judicial enquiry. In other words, this rule applies where a matter is already pending before a competent court for the purpose of adjudication.Section 10 of CPC deals with the stay of civil suits. Section 10 of Civil Procedure Code defines “ Stay of Suit: as- No Court shall proceed with the trial of any suit in which the matter in issue is also directly and substantially in issue in a previously instituted suit between the same parties, or between parties under whom they or any of them claim litigating under the same title where such suit is pending in the same or any other Court in India having jurisdiction to grant the relief claimed, or in any Court beyond the limits of India established or continued by the Central Government and having like jurisdiction, or before the Supreme Court. In simple words Section 10 declares that no Court should proceed with the trial of any suit in which the matter in issue is directly and substantially in issue in a previously instituted suit between the same parties and the Court before which the previously instituted suit is pending is competent to grant the relief sought.The Rule applies to trial of a suit and not the institution thereof. It also does not preclude a Court from passing interim orders, such as, grant of injunction or stay, appointment of receiver. It, however, applies to appeals and revisions. The object of the rule contained in Section 10 is to prevent courts of concurrent jurisdiction from simultaneously entertaining and adjudicating upon two parallel litigations in respect of the same cause of action, the same subject-matter and the same relief. The provisions of Section 10 of the code do not strictly apply, a civil court has inherent power under Section 151 of the code to stay a suit to achieve the ends of justice. Similarly, a Court has inherent power to consolidate different suits between the same parties in which the matter in issue is substantially the same. Section 10 also provides that there is no bar on the power of an Indian Court to try a subsequently instituted suit if the previously instituted suit is pending in a foreign Court.Q. Which of the following statements is false in relation to the above passage in order to apply doctrine of Res Sub-Judice?
