Q: What are the rules related to Adverse Possession

Son died on 25th feb 2005. Mother had inherited share in predeceased son property.Mother died on 20 jan.2007. I as brother can claim share in brother property.When statutary provision of 12 years time of adverse posession would run out in my case to claim by mother inherited share in predecesed son property. Would I be entited to fresh start after the death of mother regarding this 12 years period of adverse possession which can be become adverse to plaintiff(me)

Advocate Arpit Maheshwari answered
Hi,First of all if there is no legal heir to the deceased women and you are the next closest relationship they have you can simply file a suit for declaration and get the property in your name. In that case you dont have to wait for that statutory period of adverse possession. Secondly the period for adverse possession starts from the death of the deceased woman being the owner/successor of the property. Thirdly there is no guarantee that even after the statutory period of adverse possession is over you will be legally entitled to the property as it always depends on the discretion of the court followed by the case which you have to prove without reasonable doubts. So my suggession is instead of going for an adverse possession suit its better to go for suit for decleration.

Q: Right of grandson in grandmother's property

My motherinlaw sold a property n purchased three plots .all the agreement and will are in the nameof her but power of attorney' are in the name of three sons respectively which is executed by the first party (i.e.seller) not by my mother in law. Now who is the real owner of the property?

Advocate Arpit Maheshwari answered
Your mother in law will be the owner of the property as power of attorney is not a proof of ownership. Whereas the sale deed is the documentary proof of ownership. To answer your question more appropriately i also need to know what are the documents which were executed at the time of purchase of land? Also if there is a will of your mother in law than his will bequeath the property only after her death.

You can file a writ petition before the high court challenging such examination and you can call for the question and for its answers. The high court will then exam it through an expert. Then accordingly it will order either to conduct a re examination or conduct re checking of the answer sheets.

You can file for parole in the Supreme court itself by moving an interim application in the same appeal. On that application supreme court will hear the matter again and will grant an appropriate order. lower court will not entertain it as the appeal was dismissed by the supreme court.

Q: No proof of first marriage can wife marry again to some other guy

I've a female friend , she got love marriage, but were unsuccessful resulting which she had to live with her family. She married in a temple and had no proof of her marriage and z not aware whether guy hold any paper for same or not? She is scared of moving into relationship with anyone as of reason mentioned above. When approached that guy for any proof he denied, and also turned down divorce condition . but he is in love with any other lady.

Advocate Arpit Maheshwari answered
Its always on the safer side to get a divorce but if the guy doesnt have any proof she can go ahead with the relationship. But since the guy refuse to take divorse this create a suspicion on his intensions. So my advice would be if you are more 100% confident about the last guy then only go ahead with your new relationship otherwise get a divorse first.
