Kharab Land under farming

Hi,

My uncle has been cultivating since 1979 and has 2 acres & 20 guntas in his name. He has been cultivating in the land next to it which does not belong to any body and has been growing crops there for 3 decades.

I had heard that this land can be registered to the culivator of the land if he/she has been cultivating for more than 19 years.

Please can you let me know how and what are the procedures for this.

Thanks & regards,
Shiva Shankar S

Relinquishment father-in-law (Sasur)->Daughter-in-law (Bahu)

Myself (man) and my father are joint owners of a commercial property.

* Can we give this property to my wife [my father's Daughter-in-law (Bahu)] by way of Relinquishment deed (the most cost effective way)?

* Or such a deed is not possible from father-in-law to daughter-in-law and is only possible in blood relations?

If above is not possible then what are the alternatives and some idea on costs please.

There is no problem between fammily members and they can sign as witnesses.

Court decree on our House

Hello,

I am Prashanth and I am a resident of Bangalore. This post is about a court decree granted against our house.

My dad had taken an advance of around Rs.110,000/- ELEVEN years ago in 1999 to lease out our house to a person. Due to some inevitable reasons we could not lease the house to the person. Hence we had to return back his advance. However, due to financial problems we could only refund Rs.55,000/- to this person.Hence we had to still pay him Rs.45,000 which we haven't paid him back yet.

Now, after 11 long years this person turns up and asks for the balance Rs 45,000 and the interest totally amounting to Rs.1,80,000. He also says that he has a decree on my house and can evacuate us at any moment if we donot pay him the amount he claims. I am not in the position to pay him any amount. Moreover, my father died 3 years ago in 2006. Also the house that i'm talking about has come to us by heredity from my grandfather.

All the agreements have been made between my father and this person. Neither me nor my mother are part of any agreements. Also, I was just 12 years old when this happened in 1999. Also the decree which he is holding might be very old, like 7 years old at least.

So my question now is: Does the court decree on my house hold any value now on my house or me or my mother?? Should we really respect the decree ?? Can this guy get us vacated from our own house for no mistake of mine or my mothers' ??

Please answer this query at the earliest as I need to speak with this person very soon. I will be thankful if u can help me out of this:)
