Novel Law Case in India

The Calcutta Reporter reports
a curious case that recently occur
red among the Hindoos. The
plaintiff sued for thirty-three ru.
pees (Sl650) damages sustained
10y the failure of the defendants
10 attend an entertainment tc
which the plaintiff had invited
them and to partake of the refresh
ments which he had provided fol
thems The presiding judge of
the court decided as follows:
"This suit is brought for the re
covery Of thirty-three rupees, be-
ing the sum expended by the
plaintiff for making preparation,
for an entertainment in his house
for the defendants. 1t has been
proved by plaintiffs witnesses
that defendants accepted the invi.
tation of plaintiff, but did not par
take of the feast that was prepar-
I'd by plaintiff at great expense,
From this act Of the defendants
plaintiff has suffered a loss Of thir-
~ rupees expended by him in
preparing the articles Of food nee
essary for bis guests. This sum
he would not have expended had
the defendants not accepted his
invitation. AS by this act of the
defendants plaintiff has suffered a
loss of thirty rupees, as proved
by his witnesses, | think he will
be entitled to recover this sum
from the defendants"
The case was appealed aud the
decision was overruled, the High
Court of Calcutta deciding:
"If persons, by accepting an III
vitation to their neighbours house,
aid afterward falling to attend,
were to be held liable to recoup
the entertainer for the price Of
the food unconsumed on account
of their absence, the risk of accept.
ing invitations would be very Sc.
rious indeed"
