When there is a dispute between two persons with regard to the title of the property, till the dispute is decided by the court, the assessing officer has the power to decide the owner who will be the liable to pay the tax till the title is in dispute. If his decision is against what the court later decides, then the person who paid the tax can ask for refund from the other person.
