A Joint Family is residing in state of Kerala. They have ancestral property in Kerala as well as ancestral property in neighbouring Karnataka. Joint Family abolishion act in Kerala came in to efffect from 1/12/1976. Due to this any child born after this date can not claim property rights in Joint property. (correct me if I am wrong).
Now, the family decided to sell property in Karnataka. Sale deed happend in 2010 and address of sellers is given as Kerala residents. There are some minor rights issue rasied by some one.
My questions
1. For sale purpose, which state law is applicable as far as family status (joint or not) is concerned. Is it Kerala or Karnataka.
2. If a compromise decree aggreed under order 23 rule 3 of c.p.c, and signed by parents after recieving amount under supervision of court, can this be challenged later by children when they attain majority?
