The problem consists of a set of rules and facts. Apply the specified rules to the set of facts and answer the question. In answering the following question, you should not rely on any rule(s) except the rule(s) that are supplied for every problem. Further, you should not assume any fact other than those stated in the problem. The aim is to test your ability to properly apply a rule to a given set of facts, even when the result is absurd or unacceptable for any other reason. It is not the aim to test any knowledge of law you may already possess.Rules :- Whoever finds an unattended object can keep it unless the true owner claims that object. This does not affect the property owner's right to the ownership of the property on which the object is found. The right to ownership of a property does not include the right to ownership of unattended objects on that property. Facts : Elizabeth is the CEO of global management services company in Chennai and is on her way to Ranchi to deliver the convocation address at India's leading business school on the outskirts of Ranchi. Flying business class on Dolphin Airlines, she is entitled to use the lounge owned by the airline in Chennai Airport while waiting for her flight. She finds a diamond ear-ring on the floor of the lounge and gives it to the staff of Dolphin Airlines expressly stating that in the event of nobody claiming the ear-ring within six months, she would claim it back. The airline sell the ear-ring after eight months and Elizabeth files a case to recover the value of the earring from the airline when she is informed about its sale.As a judge you would order that:
a. Elizabeth is not entitled to compensation because the ear-ring was found on the property of the airline and therefore, the airline is entitled to sell it.
b. The airline must compensate Elizabeth because owning the lounge does not give the airline the right over all things that might be found on it.
c. The airline must compensate Elizabeth because while accepting the ear-ring from Elizabeth they had agreed to return it if nobody claimed it within six months.
d. Elizabeth is not entitled to compensation because she did not claim the ear-ring after the expiry of six months and the airline waited for a couple more months before selling it.
e. None of these

The airline sell the ear-ring after eight months and Elizabeth files a case to recover the value of the earring from the airline when she is informed about its sale.Assume how that Elizabeth was only an economy class passenger and was not entitled to use the airline's lounge. However, she manages to gain entry and finds the ear-ring in the lounge. The rest of the above facts remain the same. Will her illegal entry into the Lounge affect Elizabeth's right to keep the ear-ring (or be compensated for its value)?
a. Yes, the airline claims that Elizabeth's entry into the lounge was illegal and therefore she has no right over anything she found there.
b. No, because Elizabeth's class of travel has no bearing on the outcome in this case.
c. Cannot be determined as we need to know how Elizabeth was able to access the airline's lounge.
d. None of the above.

The airline sell the ear-ring after eight months and Elizabeth files a case to recover the value of the earring from the airline when she is informed about its sale.To the original fact scenario, the following fact is added: In the lounge there are numerous signboards which proclaim 'Any unattended item will be confiscated by Dolphin Airlines'. In this case, you would:
a. Order the airline to pay compensation to Elizabeth because the board in the lounge cannot grant property rights over unattended objects to the airline.
b. Deny Elizabeth compensation because the signboard makes it evident that the airline, as owner of the lounge, is exercising all rights over all unattended items in the lounge and the ear-ring is one such item.
c. Deny Elizabeth compensation because she knew any unattended item belonged to the airline.
d. Order the airline to pay compensation to Elizabeth because the property rights of the airline are relevant only if the item is unattended. The moment Elizabeth found the ear-ring, it belonged to her.

a. Bandita is of unsound mind and is not in a position to make rational decisions.
b. Though Bandita is eighteen year old, she will be treated as a minor, as Chaaru is her guardian.
c. Though Bandita is eighteen year old, she cannot sell the land without the permission of her mother.
d. Though Bandita is eighteen year old she should not be treated like a person who has attained the age of majority.

In order to prove coercion, the existence of the use of threat, in any form and manner, is necessary. If coercion is proved, the person who has been so threatened can refuse to abide by the contract. D. In order to prove undue-influence, there has to be a pre-existing relationship between the parties to a contract. The relationship has to be of such a nature that one is in a position to influence the other. If it is proven that there has been undue influence, the party who has been so influenced need not enforce the contract or perform his obligations under the contract. Facts : Ajay convinces Bandita, a girl aged 18 that she would sell her land to him. Bandita's mother Chaaru is her guardian. Nonetheless Bandita, without the permission of Chaaru, sells the land to Ajay for a total sum of rupees fifty lakh, paid in full and final settlement of the price. Chaaru challenges this transaction claiming the Bandita is a minor and hence the possession of the land shall not be given to Ajay. Thus Ajay is in a difficult situation and has no idea how to recover his money from Bandita.Chulbul is:

b. Justified in refusing to enforce the employment contract as Baalu was complicit in the coercive act
c. No justified in refusing to enforce the employment contract as Baalu was an innocent person and has not coerced Chulbul.

When a State undertakes any measure, the effects of the measure must be the same for all those who are affected by it. B. When a State undertakes any measure, everyone affected must have an equal them to be benefit from it. Facts : 100 mountaineers embarked on an extremely risky climbing expedition in Leh. Weather conditions worsened five days into the expedition and the mountaineers are trapped under heavy show. The government received information of this tragedy only two weeks after the unfortunate incident and has only 24 hours in which to send rescue helicopters. Weather stations across the world confirm that this particular region of Leh will experience blizzards of unprecedented intensity for almost two weeks after this 24 hour window rendering any helicopter activity in the region impossible and certain death for anyone left behind. The government has only five rescue helicopters with a maximum capacity of 50 people (excluding pilots and requisite soldiers) and these helicopters can fly only once in 24 hours to such altitudes. As the Air Force gets ready to send the helicopters, an emergency hearing is convened in the Supreme Court to challenge this measure as this would leave 50 people to die.If you were the judge required to apply Rule A, you would decide that:
a. As many lives must be saved as possible.
b. If everyone cannot be rescued, then everyone must be left behind.
c. A measure cannot be upheld at the cost of 50 lives.
d. It must be left to those who are trapped to decide if they want half amongst them to be saved and leave the rest to die.
