OBJECT
"The object of law of limitation is to regulate the courts and manners
for providing relief or remedy, within certain regulated period by the
statute which governs the suits. If in the relevant statutes there is a
legal vacuum not providing the manner as to how the statutory period

LAW OF LIMITATION OBJECT

ik
al
M
AND REASONS riq
(i) PREAMBLE.
Ta

Law of limitation cannot be considered merely formalities but same is required


to be observed and taken into consideration being mandatory in nature. It
by

expedient to consolidate and amend the law relating to limitation of suits,


appeals and certain applications of suits. ​{​Notes by Tariq Malik​ }
e s

(ii) CONCEPT.
ot

Law of limitation sets out rule of governance and administration which have
N

the effect of preventing court of providing legal redressed even when such
rights subsists.Question of limitation is mixed question of law and fact.
(iii) RULE OF PROCEDURE.
It is a rule of procedure and a branch of adjective law. It govern the process of
litigation and limits the time after which a suit or other proceedings cannot be
maintained in a court of law. ​{​Notes by Tariq Malik​ }
Page 4 of 15

(iv) LIMITATION NOT CONDONABLE


IMPLIEDLY.
Mere disposal of a case or appeal on merits is not sufficient to lead to an
inference that the delay has been condoned. There must be something in the
order or judgement itself to show the court concerned was conscious of the fact
that the proceedings were out of time and had applied its mind to the question
of limitation before dealing with merits.
(v) BURDEN OF PROOF.

ik
When a person brings a suit and his claim is denied by the other party, it is his

al
duty to show that the suit is instituted within prescribed period of time.

M
(vi) OBJECT.
riq
The object of law of limitation is to regulate the courts and manners for
providing relief or remedy, within certain regulated period by the statute
Ta

which governs the suit. It does not create or define causes of action but simply
to prescribe the period within which existing rights can be enforced in courts
by

of law. The principle of the act is not enable suits to be brought within certain
s

period, but to forbid them from being brought after periods, each of which
e

definite event.
ot

(vii) DOES NOT CREATE ANY RIGHT.


N

​ >​ Law of limitation does not create any right

but a remedy. ​{​Notes by Tariq Malik​ }


​ ​>​ where no limitation is provided for certain
actions which impairs vested rights then
courts is empowered to impose reasonable
limitation for carrying such actions.
Page 5 of 15

​>​ The limitation cannot be extended by


analogy or reference to proceedings to
which they do not expressly apply by
necessary implication.
​ >​ When question of limitation is raised it is
decided through limitation act unless
contrary arises in Act itself. ​{​Notes by Tariq Malik​ }
​>​ When time fixed by a statute, the court has
no power and discretion at all to enlarge or
extend such time, unless it is provided

Otherwise.
