Sadashivappa Vs. Shivayogappa

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Sep-02-1996

Reported in: AIR1997Kant249

ORDER1. A subtle point of some consequence has agitated by the petitioner's learned Advocate in this case. Briefly summarised, he points out that the petitioner who is the eldest member of the joint family was given a share in the year 1992 and a document to that effect was executed and registered. He states that very shortly thereafter, the remaining members filed the present suit asking for partition and it appears that since the division was virtually between the family members that they decided to file compromise terms and dispose of the matter so that their shares would have been carved out at this stage. The petitioner who is the eldest brother filed an application to the effect that he is a member of the joint family by virtue of the fact that he is one of the brothers, thal he is consequently a necessary party to the proceeding and that therefore, he must be impleaded. The application under O. 1, R. 10. C. P.C. went a little further in so far as the petitioner contended that th...
