A.V. Padma & Ors. Vs. R. Venugopal & Ors. (SC)- In motor vehicles accident compensation claims, the entire amount may be disbursed to the claimant if he or she is literate. It is not necessary to deposit it in a bank for the safety of the dependents as some tribunals do.
JIK Industries Limited & Ors. Vs. Amarlal V. Jumani (Supreme Court)- It was held that cases of bounced cheque are independent of the revival bid of a sick company. Proceedings in bounced cheque cases under the Negotiable Instruments Act will continue even if there is a scheme to revive the sick company. The revival attempt under the Companies Act will not affect prosecution of charges under Section 138 of the Act. The charges cannot be compounded as in other cases under the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC).
The Quality Review Board has been reconstituted by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.

In the 1st week of October, 2009, the petitioner came to know that the respondents have infringed its trademark by using the word ‘Arnimax’ on its products coupled with the trade dress and thereby has infringed the registered trademark and passed off its products as that of the petitioner. Accordingly, C.S. 360 of 2009 was filed and an interim order passed on 19th February, 2010 restraining the respondent from dealing with, offering for sale, advertising, marketing or publicising the impugned trademark ‘Arnimax’. Such order was continued on 8th April, 2010 and direction given for filing affidavits. An affidavit has been filed and a No Objection Certificate dated 9th December, 2002 has been relied upon by the respondent. Such No Objection Certificate was given by one Das Homoeo Laboratory (P) Ltd. No certificate of the petitioner has been produced. In fact on a comparison of the signature of the person who is the signatory to the certificate with the signature in the Indenture of Lease dated 25th March, 1988 the said signature will not tally. The licence given to Das Homoeo Laboratory (P) Ltd. by the owners of the registered trademark did not include the registered trademark ‘Arnimax’. Therefore, neither Das Homoeo Laboratory (P) Ltd. nor anyone deriving a right thereunder could have issued the No Objection Certificate. No document evidencing sale, registration or user has been produced by the respondent therefore the case of infringement made out subsists and the order dated 19th February, 2010 and subsequent orders passed be confirmed.
