1. The husband of the appellant applied for the grant for a stage carriage permit on the route Proddatur to Kandimallayalapalli. Before the application came up for adjudiction, the applicant died.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-08-1968

Reported in: AIR1970AP33

1. This second appeal raises an interesting question of law as to whether a charge created by a decree for maintenance obtained by the wife of the manager of a joint Hindu family over the joint family property is binding on the stepson of the manager who was not a party to the suit for maintenance.2. The facts are few and they are not in dispute. This appeal is by the plaintiff who sued for partition and possession of the suit property free of charge against the 2nd defendant, his step-mother. The 1st defendant became ex parte. The 2nd defendant contested the suit contending inter alia that the charge created by her maintenance decree in O.

The trial Court dismissed the suit. the appellate Court held that the plaintiff was entitled to partition and possession of his half share in...
