I am married and have 2 children. I have two married brothers. My mother is 98 and hale and hearty.
My grand mother had 4 sons. (vis. 'A', 'B' 'C' and 'D', all of them deceased now.
My father ('B') died in 2005 leaving a will, dividing his share of property inheritted from his elder brother ('A'), Twho received this property from my grand mother. This is considered to be an ancestral property of our family. Father has not done any addition / increase in the property. My mother is 98 and is hale and hearty.
This will is written in the year 1997. it has not been modified or changed since then.
Details of the will :
1. First son gets 45 cents of prime land.
2. Second son gets 20 cents of prime land. Plus one flat in Mumbai, then (in 1977) costing about 4 lakh.
3. I get 10 centrs of non-prime land.
Apart from the abve, our old ancestoral house stood at 30 cents of land. The house is not fit to live in. This property (30 cents) is divided by ( 'A" ) equally among the three brothers (10 cents each), without any demarkation of the property.
As per my father's will the 10 cents thus received by him was divided and given to his sons (my brothers) euqlly, i.e. 5 cents each. Of the remaining 20 cents, 10 cents given to father's younger brother ('D') was purchased by my farther 2004, one year prior to his, my father's, death, with financial help from me. Obviously, there was no mention about this 10 cents in his will, written in 1997. Balance 10 cents given to his brother ('C'), was gifted by him to my father. The gift deed specifically mention that gifted property will be inheritted by my mother after his (fathers's) death. Thus this 10 cents is now in the name of my mother, who has not prepared any will as on today. However, my father has promissed orally, that the 10 cents, if gifted by "C" will be given to me. There is, however, no evidense to this promise.
The will written by father in 1977, state that the properties although divided will be under the custoday of my mother, without any authority to transfer, mortgage or sell to a third party. My request:
1. where do i stand in the 10 cents purchased by father,with financial help from me, which is not in the will.
2. my father's promise to give me the 10 cents gifted by his brother , i.e. my uncle, whether i can claim it.
3.whether i have any claim on the entire ancestoral property.
kindly advise.

I live on the first floor in road facing flat and I was looking to install grills for safety purpose, in my bedroom and living room. There is chajja on top of my flat that is approx 70inch outside due to a garden area in the flat above me on the second floor.
There is a structure outside my balcony of 28inches in both the rooms. I was looking to put a box safety grill to cover the structure of 28inches outside my balcony and use that for temporary storage.
I am not trying to incorporate that area inside my bedroom or living room.
However my society chairman tells me that I can not put a safety grill to cover 28inch of structure outside my balcony as there is a law that you can only put a box grill upto 12 inch beyond the balcony.
Need guidance from experts on Whats the right thing since I am not aware.
Respected lawyers/Experts.

I was married twice before and then got married for the third time in an arrange marriage setup. I met guy on the day of marriage. He was divorced one time before. My family and I decided not to disclose the first divorce and got married in India.
The guy lives in UK and I am in Australia and it's been 2 years to marriage. He is use to visit me once in 4 months. But ge got to know from someone about my first marriage. Now he is asking for divorce and has stopped my spouse visa application to move to UK.
Need guidance on how to save this marriage and what should I plead in the court. I won't be filing case but what you understand my grounds if in case he sends me notice.
Thank you!
The house has been my family heritage under our name since past 70-80 years, we want to sell it now but the landlord is not meeting us to sell the house, we are ready to give 33% to the landlord, but he is denying that he does not want to sell the house. Is there any other way to sell the house legally?
Its a pagdi system room, also the landlord has firmly said not to contact him for selling the house as he does not want to purchase it nor he wants to sell it to a new tenant.
Please suggest some legal ways to sell the house
Dear Sir, in general, Writ of Mandamus can be prayed for under what circumstances in the taxation matters
It has been almost 4 years, since I have seperated from my ex-wife, though we are not divorced. Both my children stay with me and does not contribute anything, although both are working adults. It has high time that now I want to just disown them in a legal way and live on my own, without them harassing me for anything whatsoever. I just don't want to have anything to do with them.
Please adivces

Partition of property
Sirs,
A property of 150 cents in same survey number was partitioned orally by metes and bounds. After few years the family members who are Christians change orally the metes and bounds in different locations before further subdivisions in the same survey number.
1. Whether the second change of locations of land by another metes and bounds is valid against the world at large i,e., against strangers.
2. Which Act is applicable for partition among Christians.
3. For Christians, can a already orally partitioned property can be partitioned again orally with all member's mutual consent.
