Civil Procedure Code (CPC) 1908 Withdrawal and compromise of suits

An agreement or compromise entered into, in a representative suit, without the leave of the court shall be:

void

voidable

valid

either valid or voidable.

- In a representative suit, parties act on behalf of others, such as in class actions.

- Any settlement or agreement reached must have the court's approval to ensure fairness and representation of all parties.

- Option 1: Void - An agreement made without court approval is invalid from the start and has no legal effect.

- Option 2: Voidable - This suggests the agreement is initially valid but can be invalidated later.

- Option 3: Valid - This would mean the agreement is legally acceptable without court approval.

- Option 4: Either valid or voidable - Implies some flexibility in legal standing.

? Option 1: Void is the correct answer.
