Kashi Nath Bhatt and ors. Vs. Atma Ram and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-07-1973

Reported in: AIR1973All548

ORDERN.D. Ojha, J. 1. Atma Ram filed a suit for partition of a dwelling house and land appurtenant thereto on November 1, 1950. He claimed one third share being a purchaser from the co-sharer of that share. The suit was contested, inter alia on the ground that the defendants were the owners of the remaining two third share and were entitled to the benefit of Section 4 of the Partition Act, 1893 (Act 4 of 1893). The suit was decreed in June 1959. It appears that the benefit of Section 4 of the Partition Act was not given to the defendants. On appeal filed by them that benefit was given by the appellate Court on April 16, 1960. The decree passed on April 16, 1960 contained a direction to the effect that the valuation of the plaintiff's share which is one third in the property in suit be determined while preparing such final decree. Atma Ram filed a second appeal in this Court which was dismissed on October 17, 1966. A review petition filed by him was dismissed on August 22, 1968. Thereaf...
