A recent court decision has brought attention to a property disagreement involving the splitting of a house in Hyderabad. Judge Narsing Rao Nandikonda has turned down a request to look again at a previous decision. Here’s what happened.
The case is about a property located at Rahmat Bagh, Chappal Bazaar, Hyderabad. The person who started the case, Smt M Nirmala Devi, wanted the property divided into six equal parts. She and one of the people she was against, Smt G Bhagyamma, were each claiming a 1/6th share, while the other two people, J Narasimha Reddy and J Srinivas Reddy, were claiming 2/6th each.
The first court had earlier rejected Smt M Nirmala Devi's case, which wanted to divide the property based on certain wills. The court found these wills to be not real, leading to the rejection of the case. The person who started the case then asked for this decision to be looked at again.
"The trial court concluded that the wills dated 09.01.2003 and 10.11.2002 were not valid."
Smt M Nirmala Devi argued that the court should have used the Hindu Succession Act, which would have divided the property into four equal parts. She claimed there was a mistake in the court's decision, as it did not consider the correct use of the law.
Judge Narsing Rao Nandikonda turned down the request for review, saying there was no clear mistake in the original decision. The judge emphasized that the request for review was not valid as it just wanted the case to be heard again.
"No relief of review can be granted, and the civil revision petition falls to the ground."
The court allowed Smt M Nirmala Devi the chance to file an appeal without worrying about the time limit. She can present her case again in a higher court, which will consider her arguments all over again.
The court decided not to look again at the previous judgment, which found the wills invalid and dismissed the case. However, Smt M Nirmala Devi can still appeal this decision and try to make her case in a higher court.
