Christian Law of Succession



 The Christian Law of Succession is governed by the provisions in the Indian Succession Act, 1925. However, with respect to Indian Christians. 

The laws of inheritance applicable to Christians are same for both genders. The property of a person dying intestate is bequeathed to the spouse of the deceased, or upon those who are kindred of the person deceased. Chapter II of the ISA provides for the order and the concerned rules for the devolution of the estate and the share to be allotted to the heirs.

 The term ‘lineal descendants’, as described under the ISA, includes children or children’s children and only those born out of a lawful marriage, If an intestate has left a spouse and also lineal descendants, 1/3rd of the estate shall devolve upon the spouse and the remaining 2/3rd shall go to the lineal descendants.

Law of Succession in Manipur and Nagaland

Image
  Local Custom Laws of Succession Indian Christians who are converts from tribes such as the Khasis ,Garos, Nagas in the North East India are exempted from Indian Succession Act. This is because they continue to follow their customary laws of inheritance despite conversion. The Catholic Church has also recognized these customary laws as valid. Nagaland Many tribes in Nagaland doesn’t   allow any share of the women in the property during succession. Naga women couldn't inherit land because of Customary Patriarchy Laws. Property is inherited by male heir and women are not entitled to inherit   sucession, in the absence of male heir, the nearest male relative would inherit   the property.

Asymmetric Arbitration Clause

ASYMMETRIC ARBITRATION CLAUSE Asymmetric arbitration clause is where only one party has the right to refer disputes to arbitration, but the other must litigate.   The case of  NB Three Shipping v Harebell Shipping  [2004] EWHC 2001 (Comm) concerned an application to stay arbitration proceedings under an asymmetric clause. The shipowner was  entitled to bring arbitration but the charterer was limited to High Court proceedings.
