JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) Leave granted. This appeal has been preferred by the appellant
against the judgment and order dated 14th December, 2011 passed by the High
Court of Judicature for Rajasthan, Jaipur Bench, Jaipur in S.B. Civil First
Appeal No. 313 of 2009. The Appellate Court by the impugned judgment held
that there is no illegality or perversity in the findings recorded by the
trial court and affirmed the order of the trial court which dismissed the
suit preferred by the appellant-original plaintiff seeking cancellation of
sale deeds executed by the second respondent in favour of the first
respondent.
(2.) The brief facts giving rise to the present appeal are as follows:
The appellant along with her two sisters (original plaintiffs)
happened to be the daughters of respondent No.2(original defendant No.2).
According to the appellant, she and her two sisters were minors when their
father Khilluram expired. Thereafter, their mother i.e. second respondent,
of course the guardian, sold out the suit property which belonged to their
father by executing a sale deed on 9th December, 1988. According to the
appellant, since the suit property belonged to their father the daughters
had shares in the property, the mother could not have sold the suit
property to the first respondent. The appellant, therefore, with two other
sisters (proforma respondent Nos.4 and 5 herein) preferred Civil Suit No.6
of 2007 for declaration of the sale deed dated 9th December, 1988 as null
and void in respect of the suit land. The appellant pleaded that the second
respondent as the mother of the appellant and two other sisters has no
right or authority to sell the suit land, as their shares are part of it.
The sale of minors' property cannot be done without obtaining the prior
permission of the Court.
(3.) The second respondent in her written statement stated that the
appellant and two others were her minor daughters. She is the wife of
Khilluram and the equal shares of the disputed land are registered in the
name of the appellant and two daughters. She had sold the entire disputed
land including the shares of the daughters vide sale deed dated 1st
December, 1988 which was registered on 9th December, 1988. The
consideration amount received out of the said sale was spent to fulfill the
requirements of the daughters- i.e. appellant and proforma respondent
Nos.4 and 5 herein.;
