Objections to registration.
|
54.—(1) Any person to whom notice of an application to register an agreement has been given by the county registrar may, within seven days after the service of such notice, send a notice (in this Act referred to as a notice of objection) to the county registrar objecting to the registration of such agreement in accordance with the following provisions, that is to say:—
|
|
| |
(a) any such person may object to the registration of such agreement on any one or more of the following grounds, namely:—
|
|
| |
(i) that no such agreement was in fact entered into;
|
|
| |
(ii) that the sum to be paid under such agreement is inadequate;
|
|
| |
(iii) that such agreement was obtained by fraud, undue influence or other improper means;
|
|
| |
(iv) that the terms agreed upon by the parties are not correctly stated in such agreement;
|
|
| |
(v) that such agreement is no longer subsisting or enforceable;
|
|
| |
(vi) any ground in addition to the preceding grounds upon which if such agreement were the subject of a suit for specific performance a court of equity would refuse to decree specific performance thereof; and
|
|
| |
(b) where such agreement is a weekly payment agreement, and the same is sought to be registered on the application of the workman, the employer may object to such agreement being registered on the ground that the workman has returned to work and is earning the same wages as he did before the accident.
|
|
| |
(2) Any objection based on any of the foregoing grounds is in this Part of this Act referred to as a statutory ground of objection.
