Quick Summary

This discussion addresses the correct court jurisdiction for filing a legal heirship suit. The deceased owned property in Tamil Nadu, while the legal heirs reside permanently in Hyderabad. The consensus is that the jurisdiction lies with the District (Civil) Judge in the district where the property is located, not where the heirs reside.
