Tarini Churn Sinha And Anr. vs Watson And Co. on 19 May, 1890
In Tarinee Churn Gangooly v. Watson and Co. (1869) 12 W.R. (Civil) 413 the High Court at Calcutta had to deal with the case of a widow who was under age and had a minor son, and the Judges held that if she was properly represented in the suit they must treat the matter as standing precisely as if she had been of age, and had acted on her own behalf, that it was erroneous to look upon the transaction simply as an alienation by her, and that she had full power to compromise a suit or even to have entered into a compromise before the suit was brought.
