Yallamma W/O Ambanna v. Muddayya and Ors.

What is this about?

Suit for declaration and possession of a share in ancestral properties, resisted on the claim that defendant No.1 was adopted by the propositus. The trial court decreed the suit; the first appellate court reversed, finding the adoption unproved because the adoption deed was unregistered. The High Court agreed there was no proof of valid adoption and dismissed the second appeal.
