\par This is an appeal by leave granted by the Fiji Court of Appeal from a judgment of that Court, delivered on 9 November 1992, affirming a judgment of Saunders J. delivered on 12 February 1991. On 22 August 1989 the plaintiffs in the proceeding who are the p

\fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid3294031\charrsid9573906 Appeal dismissed an appeal from that decision.
\par 
\par The litigation has been marked by procedural irregularities on both sides. It emerged on the subsequent hearing of a
 stay application that the plaintiffs, who were the executors of Norma Athol Ferrier-Watson, had ceased to be the registered proprietors of the land before the hearing by the High Court Judge. After the issue of the summons, in accordance with the will of
 
their testatrix they had transferred the title to a family company, Kennedy Watson Limited. This fact appears not to have been disclosed to the High Court Judge or to the Court of Appeal. As this Court indicated during the argument of the present appeal, 
t
he proceeding could apparently have been regularised by a simple amendment substituting the company as plaintiff, but no application for an amendment has been made, unless (which is not altogether clear) counsel for the respondents is to be understood as 
having made a tacit application to this Court.
\par 
\par On the part of the appellants the irregularities have been failures to comply with the Supreme Court Rules 1992. Rule 24(b) requires the appellant to lodge his case in the appeal within one month of being notified that the record is ready. Rule 37(1)}{
\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid15366991\charrsid9573906  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid3294031\charrsid9573906 
requires the appellant to file a statement of written submissions within 30 days after the lodging of his case. Despite reminders by the Registrar and the President of the importance of complying with these Rules, 
the appellants by their solicitors omitted to do so. The Chief Justice declined to grant any extension of time, but he left the question of the future of the appeal to be determined by this Court. At our hearing Mr. Sahu Khan submitted that the appellants
 
should not be allowed to prosecute the appeal. He indicated that if this submission did not succeed he would prefer in the interests of his clients to proceed with the argument of the appeal forthwith; Mr. Naidu for the appellants tendered their case and 
written submissions.
\par 
\par After hearing counsel on the question the Court intimated that in the special circumstances the appeal would be allowed to proceed. We took into account that, surprisingly, counsel for the appellants had evidently not been fully alive 
to the importance of compliance with the Rules, but that this is an early case under the Rules; that questions arise of some general significance between landlords and tenants of agricultural holdings; and that there have been mistakes on both sides, as a
lready explained. We now stress, however, that the Rules are there to be obeyed. In future practitioners must understand that they are on notice that non-compliance may well be fatal to an appeal
 in cases not having the special combination of features present here, it is unlikely to be excused.

\par Accordingly we turn to consider the case on its merits. The appellants are said to have been in possession of the land and to have cultivated it since 1954.

\par There was a dispute over rent and a
rrears and their rights, and after some earlier proceedings they applied in 1984 to the Agricultural Tribunal to have the rental fixed and to secure an instrument of tenancy. On 12 July 1988 on the day of the hearing an agreed settlement was reached, and 
a consent order was made by the Tribunal in the following terms:

t of tenancy under s. 37(1)(c)(ii). Had notice been given under that paragraph, the appellants would have had the opportunity afforded by the proviso and also the opportunity of applying for relief against forfeiture under s. 37(2). The whole argument for
 
the respondents is that the term of the settlement embodied in para. 5 of the consent order and para. 14 of the instrument of tenancy amounted, upon default in due payment of the arrears, to an agreement terminating the contract of tenancy within the auth
ority of s. 44. It is this argument that was accepted by the courts below.
\par 
\par It is convenient to refer to the two substantially identical paragraphs as the stipulation. Mr. Sahu Khan accepts that such a stipulation would be outside the liberty of contract gi
ven by s. 44, and would consequently be ineffective, if it purported to terminate}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid15366991\charrsid9573906  the tenancy on the contingency}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

44 that a tenancy will terminate on that contingency.
\par 
\par Without expressly drawing any distinction between arrears and future rent, the learned Judges in the High Court and the Court of Appeal were persuaded to accept the r
esult of the argument for the respondents, holding that upon the default here the parties ceased to be landlord and tenant. We are respectfully unable to take that approach. Such an approach could partly undermine the scheme of ALTA, by depriving agricult
ural tenants of the statutory safeguards consisting of a requirement of certain notice to quit, the right to have the notice cancelled by making good the breach, and the right to apply for relief against forfeiture.
\par 
\par There is nothing in the wording or spiri
t of s. 37(1)(e)(ii) and its proviso to confine the statutory protection to cases of arrears of future rental payable under an agreement or consent order. In this ease the amount due prior to 1980 and the subsequent rents had not been settled before the m
a
king of the consent order in 1988. It would be a harsh result if, however excusable the failure of the tenants to meet the payment dates under the consent order might be, any failure automatically brought the tenancy to an end. On the approach advanced fo
r
 the respondents there would be a real possibility of hardship resulting to the tenants in cases like the present and conceivably in other cases of different circumstances. Bearing in mind those possibilities, we conclude that the relevant safeguards in s
.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid7996804\charrsid9573906  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid3294031\charrsid9573906 
37(1) should apply in all ALTA tenancy cases where in substance the landlord is seeking to dispossess the tenant for non payment of rent or for any other breach falling within the scope of the subsection.
\par 
\par Section 44 can and in our opinion should be interpreted consistently with that view of s.37. Indeed, the prohibition in s. 15 against contracting out reinforces}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

that approach. In its natural and ordinary sense, s. 44 is directed to simple cases where the landlord and the tenant agree o
n the termination of the agricultural tenancy either forthwith or at a specified date. It is not directed to cases of purported terminations of the tenancy on the contingency of default by the tenant. Cases of the latter class are in substance disguised f
orfeitures. Section 37 cannot be circumvented by such devices. Compare }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ab\ai\af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \b\i\fs24\lang2057\langfe2057\langnp2057\insrsid3294031\charrsid9573906 Plymouth Corporation v. Harvey}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0

The approach to ss. 37 and 44 that this Court is adopting accords, in our view, both with the general scheme and purposes of ALTA and longstanding equitable doctrine.
