Dear Experts, Mr. A paid some money to Mr. B towards a agreement of sale of a property and got a signed receipt from Mr. B . Later contract was not fulfilled by Mr. B and Mr. A applied for specific performance of the contract. But in court proceeding Mr. B said that receipt was fake and it was not his signature, however he had signed before Mr. A. Now how can Mr. A prove that it is signature of Mr. B

A is the plaintiff. Burden of proof rests on his shoulders. Moreover, specific performance is unlikely to be granted as the agreement is not registered.

handwriting expert opinion has to be sought for proving signatures.
