Nihal Singh vs Matadeen

The appellant sought a declaration of ownership over a 1/6th share of property based on a previous civil court decree. The trial court initially decreed the suit, but the first appellate court reversed this, finding that the appellant was only entitled to a 1/12th share. The High Court affirmed the first appellate court's finding, concluding that the appellant's claim was based on a fallacious understanding of the share distribution.
