Narasimha Muruthy .M v. The Joint Sub Registrar - II
Case brief
What is this about?
This writ petition challenged a refusal check slip issued by the registering authority for registering a sale deed. The authority declined registration due to a tax attachment on the property. The court directed the authorities to verify if the attached portion was distinct from the subject land and to register the document if only the unattached portion was purchased.
What did the court decide?
Directed the first respondent to verify the land attachment details and, if correct that only the unattached portion was purchased, to register the sale deed.
