P.Nazeer v. P.Laila Beevi
Case brief
What is this about?
In an appeal regarding a preliminary decree for partition of the donor's estate, the High Court held that a 1975 gift deed did not bar a daughter's right to inherit. The court ruled that without a debarring clause in the voluntary gift, the appeal failed as the right of succession operates from the date of death.
What did the court decide?
The appeal is dismissed with no costs to anyone. The preliminary decree dated 28.10.2014 is upheld in part.
