Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a civil appeal concerning a partition suit filed by the deceased husband of the second appellant. The court examined the claims of the plaintiff against the defendants, who argued that a prior partition had occurred. The court upheld the lower court's decision granting the plaintiff a share in the joint family properties, while also directing further inquiries for mesne profits and partitioning of the properties.
