Dispute over Ancestral Land and Property
09-Oct-2023 (In Family Law)
Hi I was wondering whether you could give some advice. My grandfather died over 40 years ago leaving 4 sons and 1 daughter. My father was the oldest child. My uncle (dads brother) died a few years ago and his son (my cousin) has been in a legal battle with my father over ancestral rights towards my grandfather's land and property. He recently padlocked one of the property's (where my father stayed on his visits to India from UK) and my father filed a case against my cousin. A few days ago a judge decided the case in the favour of my cousin! I am not sure how this could happen as the property should remain shared until such a time it is split. Are you able to help?
Hi I will certainly try my level best to give you genuine advice. After the death of your grandfather the property should be divided equally between 4 sons and one daughter ( unmarried ) if married and relinquished her right then not. And if your cousin has won case against your father over the property which is padlocked by your cousin. You being a legal heir of your father can file a appeal against the order passed by judge in your cousin favour. Your cousin might after won the case has wrongfully padlocked the property as may be your father had not taken stay over the property . Moreover if you can tell me what sort civil suit was between your father and cousin and if u can show me the copy of order of judge which is against your father , I will be I better position to explain you and guid you accordingly for further action.

You can also call for partition of your entire property or can demand for your share from the ansctrl property but it is not advisable.
