HOW TO LEARN DRAFTING WITHOUT PAYING HUGE AMOUNTS?


03/06/2021


One of the biggest and basic things for a Law student is to learn Drafting. Drafting of legal documents or agreements or deeds or anything for such. For Drafting of any agreement all you need to know is about the format and way to understand how is it drafted and good English or Hindi skills. There are more than 90% of students, who are confused about drafting. 

How to do it? Should I apply under this organisation or should I go for that? Should I learn from an advocate? or should I do it by myself? But will I get that much knowledge or experience by myself? Here the fees is 6K, I can't afford. But here it is only 2K but the material is less. Don't think and don't invest in different - different organisations to learn drafting. 

"Do it by yourself"

How to learn Drafting by own

There are many videos on YouTube by which you can learn drafting. There is many pdfs or books are available on the Google for free. You can even ask different advocates to give their prepared file cases in pdf or word format. You don't have to just read the whole case, instead you have to notice on the other side how it is drafted. "So, basically when you are getting everything for free", why to pay 10K or more to learn drafting. 

And see nowadays, no advocate has that much time for an intern or even for his relative to teach him drafting on all subjects. They will hardly teach you 2-3 drafts and in almost everyone's mind runs that they want to learn more about it. 

Understand the Concept

See, these organisations make you fool. Yes these certificates will value. But experience and smart work, pays you off. Everywhere experience matters the most. These organisations will teach you max to max. 15 - 20 types of drafts for an amount of 25k or more. Even there are Master course or 1 year advanced courses are available. But paying such huge amounts, is only beneficial to the organisations. 

Everywhere, experience matters the most, in any field. Whether it is doctor, lawyer, engineer. Certificates won't matter you that. 

When you apply for a video lecture course or for a self-paced course to learn drafting. And nowadays most of the organisations are providing self-paced courses only. (They hardly take 5-6 live classes in two months, that also just for your doubts).

Note - "If we want to learn by ourself only or through the recorded video lectures". Then why not to go for YouTube or Google. Where you will get plenty of material for free.


Drafting is not just of 6-7 types. It's almost like endless. You just have to understand the concept, work on grammar and you need to learn how to draft and what is the format. Every draft has almost similar format - Just the facts and clause are different, depends on the type of case. 


And nowadays, in most of the colleges drafting is taught with Pleading and Conveyance. 

Conclusion

So, learning through College, YouTube, Google or through the case files. Is more than enough to get a good or great drafting skills.

Don't invest on different-different platforms or in organisations to learn drafting. It's just waste of money and time. Because at last you have to draft by yourself, if any new case arrives or new thing comes up. 

(But at last, it's your choice, whether you want to learn through an advocate or organisation or institute or by yourself)

Here are few links are attached, where you will get an idea of how to draft or what more type of videos should I see and select to learn drafting. The first link will itself clear you everything about drafting of legal notice. 

As said above in this Article, the format of all legal notices is same.

(It's not like, I am promoting someone directly or indirectly. I just want you to make yourself bold and don't waste your precious earned amount by your father or mother or by yourself ).

A Grey market is also spelled as ‘The Gray Market’. Grey market is also known as Parallel Market. The reason behind calling a Grey Market a Parallel market is because the products or goods have been manufactured with the consent of the brand owner but are sold outside through distribution channels that are not authorized by the original manufacturer or trade mark proprietor. Grey market goods are products traded outside the authorized manufacturer’s channel before they are issued in an initial public offering (IPO) or bond issue.

Mainly, there are three types of grey markets:
Firstly, A ‘Parallel Importation’ in which a product is priced lower in the home market than in the foreign market, and if the cost of arbitrage is less than the price difference, that becomes an advantage for a gray marketer and parallel importing can be done from the country of production to the export market.
Secondly, ‘Reimportation’ this can be defined as if a product in the foreign market is cheaper than in the home market, and if the cost of arbitrage is less than the price difference, then for a gray marketer reimportation is profitable.
Thirdly, ‘Lateral Importation’ in this form if the price of a product differs between two countries, and the product is not produced in either one, the product from one country is sold to the other through unauthorized channels. Example 35mm cameras of any Japanese manufacturer imported from Hong Kong to Europe and Kodak film made in the United States, from Taiwan to Germany.
There are many grey market investigation companies in India such as India mart, Greves group, Ascon detectives and Authentic Investigation and Detective Private Limited situated in Delhi, India.

Role of the Investigators
Investigators deliver an extensive range of services and advice on brand protection and tell the companies that vital IP matters which can decrease the level of grey market of your product. Investigators can also obtain concrete evidence, to identify sellers/ resellers, and to undertake the critical issues.
They also locate witnesses and set up undercover operations wherever required to get into the nerves of the supply and manufacturing chain.

Indian Law Involved
In India, parallel importation is complicatedly linked to the principle of exhaustion of rights under the Trademarks act, 1999. The principle of exhaustion of rights is included under Article 6 of the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs), which clearly states that “nothing in this agreement shall be used to address the issue of exhaustion of intellectual property rights”. Hence each state is entitled either to prohibit or to allow parallel imports within its own legal framework.

Basically two major issues are involved in the context of parallel importation and trademarks in India:
1. Whether parallel importation constitutes infringement under Section 29 of the Trademarks Act.
2. Whether India recognizes the principle of international exhaustion of rights under Section 30 of the Trademarks Act.

Answer to both the above questions will be given in a combined form below:

Section 30 of Trademark Act, deals with the limits on the effect of a registered trademark. Subclause 3 prevents the trademark owner from prohibiting the sale of goods in any geographical area on grounds of trademark right. Further Subsection 4 states that subsection 3 shall not apply when the condition of goods is changed or impaired after they have been put on the market.
The new provisions give right to the proprietor of a registered trademark to oppose further dealings in the goods if legitimate or legal laws/reasons exist. The new subclauses 3 & 4 recognize the principle of ‘Exhaustion of rights’ of the trademark owner.
The point to be noted that Sec. 30 sub-cl. (3) & (4) of the Indian Trademarks Act, 1999 deals with the exhaustion of rights after the first sale of goods.  

There is a famous case – Kapil Wadhwa v. Samsung Electronics:
The issue in this case is whether the Indian Trade Marks Act, 1999, embodies the International or National Exhaustion principal when the Registered Proprietor of Trade Mark places the goods in the market under the Registered Trade Mark.
Here in this case the defendant dealer of Samsung printers, not sold the goods as per the norms including affixing an MRP, no manufacturer guarantee and the most interesting, “not earmarked to be sold in the Indian market”. Further grievance was that the defendant was operating a website whereby the imported Samsung printers were offered at a price much lower than that of the plaintiffs. The learned single judge passed the order but the defendant is not satisfied as applied for an appeal to a higher court.
The Higher Court hereby, after listening to all the facts of the case and taking into consideration all the evidence directed the defendant to follow International Exhaustion of rights.

Conclusion
Grey market is a market where goods are sold through distribution channels without the authorization of by original manufacturer. To overcome the problem of grey market a company or person should appoint investigators or should take proper legal measures to overcome their loss and solve the problem of grey marketing.

This day is celebrated every year on June 15th. The theme for the year 2020 is "Lifting up voices". The principal goal of the World Elder Abuse Day is to provide our communities around the globe with an opportunity to get a better knowledge of abuse and neglect of older people.

Today's generation, the youth age (18-35) should support and talk to their grandparents on evert weekend and occasions. Especially, the children must take care of these elder to the fullest.

If we count world wide the population of elderly people are more in number as compare to others according to the report of UN.

There are seven forms of abuse that elders face. These abuse are physical abuse, abandonment, financial abuse, psychological abuse, sexual abuse, neglect and self-neglect. On the Internet it is revealed that most of the elders have facedabuse of their own children and grandchildren, just because they are no longer deemed 'useful'. 
So spread awareness, not just to help other's identity cases of elderly abuse but also to share the same information with elders who might facing this.

Share the below information and do take necessary steps to curb elderly abuse:

1. The Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007has made maintenance a legal obligation. Maintenance includes food, clothing, residence, medical attendance and treatment.
2. Senior citizens can apply for an allowance from their children and if not provided is punishable under this act.
3. The act also provides "Childless Senior Citizens" who are unable to maintain themselvesfrom their own income can demand maintenance from their relatives.





The Supreme Court bench of Justice L Nageswara Rao, Krishna Murari and S Ravindra Bhat said that "Right to reservation is not a fundamental right". The Court while replying to the DMK petitioner Article 32 is available only for violation of Fundamental Right. The Apex Court said so while rejecting pleas challenging the Centre's decision to not grant 50% reservation to OBCs in Tamil Nadu medical colleges.
At last court told that the parties are free to approach Madras High Court.



"Consensual cohabitation between two adults of the same sex cannot in our understanding be illegal far or less crime because its a fundamental right which is being guaranteed to the person under article 21 of the Constitution of India, which inheres within its ambit and it is wide enough in its amplitude to protect the inherent right of self-determination with regards to one's identity and freedom of choice with regards to the sexual orientation of choice of the partner,Justice Sharad Kumar Sharma observed.

"Even if the parties, who are living together though they are belonging to the same gender; they are not competent to enter into wedlock, but still they have got a right to live together even outside the wedlock. It would further be not out of a pretext to mention that a live-in relationship has now being recognized by the legislature itself, which has found its place under the provisions of protection of women from Domestic Violence Act," the bench held.


The bench further remarked that while deciding cases such as the instant one, the court should not engage itself in social mores. It held that the right to liberty and freedom of choice are "constitutional values" that cannot be abridged.
"…Social values and morals they do have their space, but they are not above the constitutional guarantee of freedom assigned to a citizen of a country. This freedom is both a constitutional as well as a human right. Hence, the said freedom and the exercise of jurisdiction in writ courts should not transgress into an area of determining the suitability of a partner to marital life, that decision exclusively rests with the individual themselves that the State, society or even the court cannot intrude into the domain."
The court added,
"[It] is the strength provided by our constitution, which lies in its acceptance of plurality and diversity of the culture. The intimacy of marriage, including the choice of partner, which individually make, on whether or not to marry and whom to marry are the aspects which exclusively lies outside the control of the State or the Society."



















Judgment is a decision of a court regarding the rights and liabilities of parties in a legal action or proceeding. Judgment is a final part of the court case. Enforcement of Judgment means enforcing a judicial decision depends upon its nature and also on the discretion of the court. If a judgment does nothing more than declaring the legal right of a person, or a simple divorce decree or a declaratory judgment (Ex. Interpreting a contract or a statue) then no enforcement is needed.
If a judgement orders a party to do or to refrain from doing a certain act or an injunction is issued to a person or an organization, the court itself takes a first step towards enforcement or execution of a judgment by holding in contempt anyone who refuses to obey the order and sentencing him to pay a fine or to go to jail.

Enforcement of Domestic Judgements
To enforce a domestic judgement, the applicant seeking to enforce have to first appoint a lawyer through a power of attorney (Vakalatnama) for representation before the court with jurisdiction to adjudicate the matter. A Court fee is to be paid at the same time for a suit to be instituted. Further, no security cost is required, during the course of hearing until the court orders.
Unless a jurisdiction is specified in a contract which subjects to pecuniary or other limitations as prescribed by law, lawsuits in relation to immovable property must be instituted in the court or to the closest where the property is situated. The place of business or place of residence will also be a factor to be kept in mind by the court to determine the jurisdiction.
Under the Limitation Act, 1963, there is a limitation period to initiate enforcement proceedings. The application for execution must be made within a period of 12 years from the date of decree or order becomes enforceable.

Below is the outline of steps used to carry out enforcement:
1.     The court must issue summons to the defendant as per the procedure set out in law and the practice rules of the High Courts. Despite the summon of the court, if the defendant failed to appear before the court, the matter will be heard and decided ex parte.
2.     Court fees have to be deposited which varies depending on the value of the lawsuit.

Cases where the order of enforcement is applicable:
·       Any order passed by the court determining the liability of the custodian (it is a person to whom the custody of the movable property is given which cannot be conveniently removed or taken in possession) of movable property to compensate the decree-holder for any damages caused due to his default.
·       Any order made against the garnishee.
·       Any order determining the liability of a partner of the firm who was not the party to the original proceedings.
·       Any order made by adjudicating the claim made to the attachment of any property attached in execution of a decree.
·       Any order adjudicating an application filed by the decree-holder for resistance or obstruction to possession of immovable property.
·       Any order adjudicating an application for the dispossession of the third party by decree-holder.

Enforcement of Foreign Judgements
Enforcement of Foreign Judgements are similar to that of Domestic Judgments.

A moratorium is that time period of the loan during which the borrower is not required to make any repayment. A Moratorium is an ‘EMI holiday’ to debtors authorized by the banks or lending institutions. It is a waiting period before which repayment by way of EMIs begins. Usually, the repayment of the loan begins after it gets disbursed and payment have to be made each month but in case of moratorium period, the payment starts after some time or the time specified. Example: Student Loan.
On May 22, the RBI permitted the bank and NBFCs (NON-Banking Financial Comapanies) to allow a further 3 month moratorium i.e. from June 1 to August 31, 2020, in respect of term loans outstanding as on March 31, 2020.
The banks also clearly said that it’s upon the discretion of the borrower, if you have enough cash flow it is advised not to avail of this extended moratorium. Opt for it only if you are facing financial problems.
Salient features of the notice
The interest on the loan will not be waived off due to an increase in loan moratorium period by the institutions. Example – consider that you took a loan of Rs. 5 Lakh at an interest of 12 per cent per annum for a tenure of 5 years.  Over the five year term, the EMI on this loan works out to Rs. 11,122 and the interest payable works out to Rs. 1.67 lakh, taking your total dues to Rs. 6.67 lakh. Now the twist comes, if you avail a three-month moratorium, your EMI rises to Rs. 11,459 and you end up paying Rs. 6.87 lakh to the bank.
So, basically its only a grace period and if you opt for the moratorium extension, you need not pay the EMIs for that six months (March - August) but you will have to continue paying the accrued interest on the loan EMIs for these six months.
Three options were given by the Banks:
  1. Make one-time payment of the accrued interest payable at the end of moratorium period;
  2. Add the accrued interest to the outstanding loan and pay the same by increasing the amount of EMIs to be paid for the rest of the loan tenure;
  3. Add the accrued interest to the outstanding loan and pay the same amount of EMI for a longer tenure thereby paying back the full amount.
Merits of opting Loan moratorium:
  • The Bank will not charge any penalty even if you are not paying the loan during this 6 month period.
  • If you don’t repay your loan, your credit score and credit history will not see an adverse impact during these 6 months.
  • Temporary relief but prolonged EMI burden.
Conclusion
The Loan moratorium is an ‘EMI holiday’ granted to the people, who are facing financial problems or the people who are not in a position to pay their EMIs and are severely hit by the nationwide lockdown on account of COVID-19. The banks also clearly said that it’s upon the discretion of the borrower, if you have enough cash flow it is advised not to avail of this extended moratorium. Opt for it only if you are facing financial problems. The one’s who choose to pay their dues after the moratorium period will still have to pay the accrued interest as the interest on the outstanding amount will continue to accrue throughout the moratorium period.

Several issues were raised by the individuals and companies to the government during these hard times, as we are slipping down in poverty and lost our jobs due to this pandemic COVID-19. These poor, middle class, small institutions and micro industries stand in front of the government and asked for the relief. Then RBI after discussion with the officials and institutions find out a way to this situation by increasing the moratorium for the period of 6 months, i.e., till August 31st, 2020. The Relief was given on all kind of loans such as car loans, home loans, corporate loans and credit card loans or EMIs etc. Lastly, after all the calculations and analysis the above increase in loan moratorium period will become a real burden in future to all the borrowers present out there.
