Dear All Experts,
Request your views/comments on distribution of ancestral agricultural land which was directly transferred to my brother’s name from my grandfather.
Below are the details.
- Grandfather has three sons (grandfother passed away in 1995)
- We are three sons to my father.
- During the distribution of his farmland to his sons (my father and his siblings), my grandfather transferred 21 acres of farmland to one of my brothers around 1994.
- Now my brother claims that it’s his land and is not willing to give me and my other brother our share of the land.
- I am planning to take this matter to the court.
Btw - We live in Karnataka state, if it matters.
I have following questions on above matter-
- Do I have legal rights to ask my share of this 21 acres of farmland?
- If I take it to the court how long would it take to get it resolved?
Please let me know if you need additional info. I don’t want to take it to the court if I don’t have any legal rights on this property. I do think that it’s not fair if he eats up all 21 acers of farmland leaving two of us high and dry. Please advise.
Thank you!
Jay
