This document discusses a case law involving Lalman Shukla, a servant, and Gauri Dutt, his nephew's uncle. Gauri Dutt's nephew went missing one day. Gauri Dutt announced an offer of a reward for anyone who found his nephew. Lalman Shukla searched for and found the nephew. However, Gauri Dutt refused to pay the reward. Lalman Shukla filed a suit in court. The document discusses whether there was a valid contract between the two for the reward. It determined that according to Indian contract law, there was no contract because Lalman Shukla did not accept the offer, so Gauri Dutt was not liable to pay the reward.
