In cases where the deceased father leaves the land without a will (intestate), all surviving legal heirs are entitled to an equal share. To obtain their individual shares, legal heirs must file a partition suit in the civil court, preceded ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

To construct another building on the same land, obtaining approval for the building plan from the municipal authority is a prerequisite. If your neighbor attempts to hinder the construction by obtaining a court injunction on potentially frivolous grounds, you can contest the case in court to have the injunction lifted. After successfully contesting the case and having it disposed of or dismissed, you can take legal action against your neighbor. This may involve serving a legal not ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

In the event of a motor accident resulting in loss of life and multiple violations of the Motor Vehicles Act and traffic rules, even if the vehicles or individuals involved are insured under the Insurance Act, the insurance company may repudiate the death claim due to those violations. Consequently, the court may find your son liable for the payment of death compensation to the claimant.

To address this situation, you have the option to appeal to the High Court, requesting a remi ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

A stop payment instruction issued by the drawer of a cheque, originally intended for fulfilling a contractual obligation, could trigger legal implications under the Negotiable Instruments Act (N.I. Act). Section 139 of the N.I. Act establishes a presumption regarding the issuance of cheques for discharge of debt, while Section 138 outlines the legal consequences, including potential legal action, that the drawer may face for dishonoring the cheque.

A. Dear Client,

The SARFAESI Act is invoked to attach secured assets in compliance with the Debt Recovery Tribunal's (DRT) order. If you settle your dues per the recall notice, the bank cannot withhold clearance for two months without a valid reason. Such negligence constitutes a deficiency in service, warranting a complaint to the District Consumer Commission under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, seeking compensation for harassment.

It's important to note that employment-related matters fall ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

Your categorization as belonging to the Other Backward Classes (OBC) remains unchanged even after marriage. In the context of caste determination, the classification of children is based on the father's category, and this status does not alter with a woman's marriage. The salary income or pension of a government employee is not factored into the computation of annual income for assessing eligibility under the OBC Non-Creamy Layer (NCL) category.

Marriage, according to this perspe ...ReadMore
