MOA- refers to a Memorandum of Association that every company formed under the Companies Act shall have and it broadly stated the objects of the company. MOU- refers to a Memorandum of Understanding and is also referred interchangeably as an LOI (letter of intent). This is a document that would capture the "tentative" understanding between parties, which is subject to fulfilment of certain conditions upon the happening of which parties shall enter into more definitive agreements with each other. However, more often than not MOUs are drafted like an agreement itself thereby withering away the distinction between an MOU and an agreement. My suggestion would be to avoid use of the MOU is you are entering into conclusive and definitive understanding, which would require an agreement. An MOU normally precedes and agreement since it is just the record of initial understanding between parties and should be non-binding in nature.

PCC encroachment matter

Hi, I have constructed a house on my rayati land in 2022 and there is a 5 feet PCC road in front of house which was laid down under chief minister regional development scheme in 2014-2015 on the rayati land of other parties. They didn't show any objection during the construction of PCC road but now after several years when I constructed my house they have put brick wall on pcc road completely blocking my passage out of house. A writ petition 6580/20204 was filed in honourable patna high court where honourable court issued direction that if a petition will be filed under provision of bihar public land encroachment act 1956, the circle officer will consider same and take appropriate action but after filing petition to CO they didn't take any action and made a report that the PCC road constructed over rayati land hence no action can be taken under bihar public land encroachment act 1956. Please suggest what shall I do next as I am not able to reside in my house due to blocked passage. Thank you, Saurav

Tenant has no rights on rental property as per rental agreement. Can owner start using the property though tenant is not vacating.

We have a rental agreement for a commercial property and registered it with https://www.tenancy.tn.gov.in/ for a period of 11 months. Rental agreement has a condition that on breach of rental conditions (default on rent payment) or termination of rental agreement, tenant has no rights on the rented premises. Tenant didn't pay rent for 6+ months and the tenant agreed in a written statement to vacate the property by the end of last month but failed to vacate. My question is, Since the tenant has no rights to the rented property as per rental agreement, can we start using our property and remove his belongings? Can we file a police complaint for trespassing into our property and preventing us from entering our property? Can we file a complaint with the Tamilnadu rent authority? If so, how to do it.
