My father passed away, leaving behind a house for my two brothers, two sisters, and myself. The court awarded me a 25% share, each of my other brothers received 25%, and the remaining 25% went to my father’s share. I bought out one brother’s 25% share and he signed the legal documents transferring his portion to me. However, this brother is still living in the house and refuses to move out. How can I legally claim my 55% share (my 25%, the 25% I purchased, and 5% of my father’s share) of the house?

You can file a civil suit for eviction based on the legal documents transferring your brother’s share to you. The court can order your brother to vacate the property, as he no longer has legal ownership of the 25% he transferred to you.

Hi, My family booked a flat in JP Nagar back in October 2015 and paid a 15 lakh booking amount via cheques. We have all the receipts. Sadly, a personal tragedy occurred, and we had to withdraw from the project. The builder initially agreed to refund the amount, but it’s been over a year, and he hasn’t returned the money. We recently discovered he sold the same flat to someone else. We are considering legal action. What are our chances of winning the case? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Vidhya

My husband left home a year ago due to family disagreements. My father-in-law gave him a divorce notice, but they still work together. They even meet daily with my brother-in-law. We decided to go back home with our two-year-old, but he asked us to leave and threatened to call the police. He claims he published the divorce notice in the newspaper. What should we do in this situation?

My father, a resident of Maharashtra, passed away a few years ago without leaving a will. He owned 8 acres of farmland and a house, both acquired through his own hard work. He is survived by my mother, two sons (myself and my brother), and two daughters who were married before 1994. I have a few questions regarding the inheritance: 1. As my sisters were married before 1994, what is their rightful share in the farmland and the house? 2. Since my father earned the property himself, can my mother claim the entire estate for herself?

My sister-in-law is being harassed by my cousin and his wife. They previously filed false complaints against her mother-in-law and other family members, alleging dowry harassment and even murder. The police investigated and found these claims to be baseless. Now, they are targeting me, falsely accusing me of assault and threatening me with goons. I was at the police station all morning to report their harassment, and the police found their claims false. Can I obtain a court order preventing my arrest based on future false complaints from my cousin and his wife? They want me out of the house, which is jointly owned by us three cousins, and the other two live abroad.
