My grandfather passed away, and his property was sold by his legal heirs (my father and uncles) to a third party 10 years ago. Now, after all this time, my siblings and I are facing legal trouble because our parents are using a pre-decree order they obtained in 1991 to try and claim a share of the property. The court has already dismissed their request for a final decree, and they are now appealing. They are asking for a reallocation of their share, even though the property was sold legally in 1980. We are being dragged into this legal battle, and we are trying to argue that the sale was valid and the property is no longer theirs. What can we do to protect our interests and stop them from interfering with our ownership?
Best Answer
The 1991 pre-decree order may not be valid after the dismissal of the final decree request. The sale of the property in 1980, if done legally, should be considered valid. You can file a legal challenge against your parents’ appeal and argue the validity of the sale, emphasizing the long-standing nature of the ownership transfer and the lack of any legal claim on their part.
