Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision confirming the rejection of the appellant's application under Section 10 of the Code of Civil Procedure to stay the suit. The Court found that the suit filed by the respondent to declare the Sale Deed dated July 12, 2004, as invalid was validly maintainable, given the allegations of forgery regarding the Will claimed by the appellant. The Court emphasized that the matter of ownership and validity of the Sale Deed should be adjudicated in the ongoing civil suit, thereby affirming the lower court's ruling.
