Q: Procedure to file writ petition against illegal construction by neighbour

My neighbour in front of my plot has done illegal construction in his plot with a view to reduce the value of my property And cunningly acquire that land for a very low price. I am unable to sell my property because of the blocks created by him. Can I file a writ complaint against neighbour for illegal construction? Please advise what I should do

Advocate Manoj George answered
Hai.a writ can be filed before honble high court. But since its a completed one the risks are high. Any how it needs a local inspection n i think its time to meet your lawyer. Get a lawyer particularly civil lawyer f ur jurisdiction. Also the illegal construction defenition is to be put into physical clarification regarding how it went illegal n to wat extent.hope am upto ur query

Q: Want to know about easement rights to path on others land

Dear sir/madam I am a native of . Me and my family using a path way(through other person property) for reaching National Highway form my house. Distance between my home to NH is less than 75 mtrs. In between the ownership of the property which we using for path way changed and the new person is denying us from using his property. We are using this path way since last 20 yrs. I am also a defence service person. How could I get a permanent path way. What I have to do and where I have to approch for this ? what is the supreme court judgement on easement rights ?

Advocate Manoj George answered
Haiur claim in pathway is through easement by prescription. Also to establish some other rights if any, need to scrutinize ur title deed and need to physically examine the plot. Anyhow ur query says u have easement right by way of prescription. ie. claim of 20 years and document substantiating the same for 40 years. And for establishing the same a declaratory suit as well as prohibitory injunction suit will solve the matter. Now a days without going after declaration people opts simple injunctions. Tat is to be decided after vising plot.N last u have to approach the concerned civil court for ur redressal. If the other party is amenable for a settlement we can go for a PLP which is cost friendly.Hope am upto ur query

Q: How to get rid of online loan harassment in India?

I have taken money from a person 1 yr back on an interest rate of 3%. However due to some reason, I was unable to pay it. Now I have asked for a last 3 months period which I agreed under his pressure. He is asking to put an agreement with this 3 months period. I have got a call from Police SI as well asking to do so. I need 1 yrs time to pay the amount and interest back to the person. Moreover the person is giving me tremendous mental torture as well. Kindly advise as on what can be done.

Advocate Manoj George answered
Hai.eventhough all money related matters are criminal in nature the real remedu comes in a civil suit. The cause can be truly challenged in a civil suit by way of injunction n stay. U may even get more than a year time to give him tat money. Legally saying one can redeem money only if there is a written agreement or some sort f instrument to claim over the same. So u may bot have to worry if there is an injunction against him to redeem money only through process f law. U may even escape from the liablity totally...contact a civil lawyerHope am upto ur query

Q: Legal heir certificate vs family member certificate

My father died in 2015. Now me, my brother and mother decided to partition the property. Is it necessary to get legal heir to do this? what's the difference between family member certificate and legal heir certificate

Advocate Manoj George answered
Hai.Infact there is no need to show a legal heirship certificate to dectate or register a partition deed as u mentioned in query. How ever the practise that registrars used to enquire regarding the whereabouts is a good thing. The duty f the registrar is confined to his powers as mentioned in registration act n rules. His only duty is to verify n certain that the person standing infront f him is genuine or not by clarifying the same with some ID. N he certifies only whether that particular person is present before him at that particular day n time. Tats all. The difference between a legal heir n family memebership is tat the legal heirship defines who all inherits the deceasedz estate or who all only succeeds with his intersts. Family memebrship also even identical cant be relied upon due to its lack f enquiry before issuance.hope am upto ur query
