Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 23 August 2022 This query is : Resolved 
X has a complaint already filed over Y in the court, that the construction of Y's house has caused damage to the X's property. Meanwhile, Y decided to stay on his property as X's intention is pretty clear to keep Y away from living in the house Y is building. Y did some furnishing work inside the house. Court has put a stay for Y's construction. But Y decided to stay in the house anyway even though it is not fully finished. As 1. X trying to corner Y by purposefully delaying the case by numerous petitions 2. Y has no other place to rest his family. Now X has come up with a petition to the court requesting the sealing of Y's property stating they have violated the court's order to stop any construction until notice.

What is the best course of action for Y here? X is making unbearable demands to have any offline talks. Y is ready to obey if the court is making decisions based on findings from the engineering committee (appointed by the court) observation to settle the case. But X is not happy with the engineering committee's findings and coming up with objection over objection. All Y want is his own place for his family to stay peacefully.

Is the court passed any orders on the findings of the Engineering Committee? Now, what is your problem? Y may file his objections if any he has before the court.

Thanks for your reply, the court has not passed any order yet on committee findings. Before that, X complained that Y violated the court order and started construction. Though Y just did some mere furnishing work like fitted doors, windows and painting with this started living in the house.

X has waited for the engineering committee findings and when realised that there is nothing conclusively pointing Y has caused the damage but mentioned possible damage along with how other changes X has done to his house might have resulted in damage, out of losing leverage X desperately trying to seal Y's house by saying they committed construction work despite court stay. Is it possible to seal? what measures X can take?
