We have two separate issues.One relates to our father’s personal HUF and the other relates to our ancestral joint family.
The background concerns an ancestral family home in Gujarat. The greater HUF was formed in Gujarat. There were three partial partitions made in the 70’s. Our grandfather passed away in August 2010. All the ancestral property was divided 3 ways between our father (the eldest son) and his 2 younger brothers. Some possessions were divided directly and some in the form of trusts, of which the 3 brothers are both trustees and beneficiaries.
Just prior to his passing, our grandfather did a final partition of his HUF. In this, my father waived his rights to his share.
With regards to the first partial partition in 1974 of our grandfather’s HUF, both our uncles seem to feel that they have been wronged in terms of having received unequal shares at the time father. At the time of division both our father’s brothers got shares worth an amount equal to the book value of a flat that our father had received. However, at that time the property which had been bought some years previously by my grandfather, had gone up in value. And here lies the discrepancy.
With the above scenario in mind, we would appreciate clarifications regarding the greater ancestral inheritance and to our grandfather’s HUF.
Queries and clarifications:-
(1) Is it legal to raise this issue of divisions from the past, after 30 odd years? Since they had agreed to the divisions at the time and signed the papers, can they now retrospectively challenge the divisions?
(2) If his brothers can demand in 2011 there should have been an equal division and are legally entitled to do so, will there be retrospective evaluations or current values taken into consideration of what was partially partitioned in 1974?
(3) In the event his brothers are legally entitled, what then needs to be done to amend things?
On the other hand, as explained above, in the final partition that took place just prior to our grandfather’s passing, my father waived his rights to his share (as explained above)
(4) We would like to know if our step mother or any of my father’s daughters have a right to challenge this decision to waive his rights.
(5) Does our step mother have any right to the properties as part of partitions before he married her as at that time my father’s personal HUF consisted of our late mother and us three sisters?
(6) Also if you could please clarify if the granddaughters are now, or were (prior to their grandfathers death) coparceners/members of all ancestral property held in trusts or otherwise?
(7) Could you clarify the issue of class I and class II heirs? When do class II heirs become class I heirs? And what is their legal status?
(8) Does our step mother have a right to demand to see my grandfather’s will (in which neither she nor either of my uncles’ wives have been mentioned)?

Please advice
Hi,
I need some help & advice. I got married in July 2007 under special marriage act. My wife is a christian and i'm a Hindu. We've agreed to go in for a mutual divorce. We have a 2 year old son from our marriage. We have been staying seperately from last 1 and half years without any contact. All she calls me is for money for the child. I've been paying 3000 every month for the child. I have the below questions:
1. Do i have to pay her lifetime maintence?
2. Both of us work. I earn around 4L & she around 2.4L. Do i still have to pay her maintenence while she's earning?
3. She said she'll return back to her parents and delibretly stop working inorder to claim more maintaince from me. Is that possible.
4. What kind of one time settlement amount should i be looking for to settle this out of court.
5. She chose to live seperately even after my repeated requests for her to comeback and live with me and my parents. Her reason being she's not comfortable in the house as she cant practise her religion.
I never stopped her from going to church and neither my parents.
Please advice...
Thanks

A petition is "allegedly" by a lady in Family Court seeking Divorce from her husband on the ground of cruelty under section 13(1)(ia) of the HMA.
Subsequently, 3 months later, a Memorandum of Compromise was "allegedly" filed by both parties under Order 23 Rule 3 CPC.
 On the basis of this, original petition was allowed on same day and an Order granting Divorce by Mutual Consent was recorded under Section 13 B of the HMA was passed
 The compromise provided for alleged agreement between parties, viz;
a)Divorce shall be granted.
b)The lady will not have any claim against her husband for her Maintenance.
c)She should not have any claim over the property of husband, and,
d)She will not have any claim over the custody of her children.
 It was only 3 months after divorce order that the lady came to know about this fraud played upon her only. The same can be understood from the fact that till then she was residing in the house her husband unaware of the fact that the a Divorce Decree has already been passed. There are several proofs supporting the same.
Immediately the lady files a suit which is a suit seeking to declare the Divorce Decree as null & void on the following grounds :
1.That the "alleged" original petition and Memorandum of Compromise have been actuated by fraud and coercion by her husband by threatening her.
2.That NONE of the provisions of a mutual consent divorce have been adhered to and the Order of Divorce is not in conformity with the mandatory provisions of section 13B
3.The divorce pronounced merely on the basis of a Memorandum of Compromise filed under Order 23 Rule 3 CPC.
4.No Decree of divorce can be granted under Order 23 Rule 3 CPC of HMA otherwise the very purpose of enacting a law under Section 13 B of the Hindu Marriage Act is lost.
5. Several recent Supreme court judgments have been citied which have come down heavily on Family courts for waiving of provisions of Sec13(b) very freely.
I would, as a student of law, like to get perspectives from the learned members of this community on the
A). Quality of judgment as well as following a due process by the Family Court.
B). Legal strength of the position taken by the lady now.
C) Is there a provision in the law which the lady can take help of for remedying this gross tragedy?
