Mumpattachit

(Querist) 23 October 2009 This query is : Resolved 
In an old 1936 registered documentin Kerala , the name given to it as Mumpattachit.The duration of possession of land was for one year only. What would be status of the holder after one year. Can a joint name holder of the document file a suit for partition now based upon it. Are they not tresspassers after one year. Please enlighten me.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 23 October 2009
By the lapse of such a long period the plea of adverse possession which is definitely hostile to the true owner, comes in the way and thus possession has become legal and ownership rights have thus been vested in the person in possession of the property holding that document.
