Unsound defendent

jains (Querist) 18 February 2019 This query is : Resolved
In a suit for specific performance of a sale agreement for selling a land property, without appointing a guardian for the defendant who is unsound, the suit is decreed for specific performance even though the information regarding the unsoundness of the defendant was intimated to the court. No opportunity was afforded to the defendant to be defended with the help of a guardian. Whether this will amounts to apparent error in the judgement which entitles to invoke review jurisdiction?

Has the defendant been proved unsound clinically and proof submitted before the court? Mere information given to the court has no relevance, as the court cannot be expected to go beyond the proof and facts adduced before it.

However, background of entering in to agreement for sale is necessary to be described elaborately before expecting any appropriate opinion of the experts.

What are the documents produced to prove "unsoundness" of defendants ?
What is the advise of your lawyer, if you are not a student ?
