Re: partition of property

as to the legal remedies under agreement executed 10 years back by your father on receipt of substantial portion of the consideration are time barred; therfore your present legal action to partition the inherited property does not call for the impleading of the person who paid money to your father; he is neither entitled to seek specific performance nor seek return of the money paid.

No, the party who paid money ten years ago is not required to be made party in partition proceedings.

Re: partition of property

Dear sir,

It is not necessory to implead a person who paid substantial amount and had entered into an agreement 10 years ago with your father.

Now he has no right to claim for money nor he can seek for specific performance.

now you can go ahead with court partition.
