Property acquired through family settlement

A partition lawsuit was initiated during 1986 between four brothers and one sister. Plaintiffs were the first and second  brother and the defendants were third brother and sister.  The suit was disposed off through a family settlement agreement filed with the Hon Court.Howerver while filing the settlement agreement, properties other than the suit schedule properties were also listed.  These properties were self acquired and need not have been listed.  Subsequently the third brother willed his properties some time during 2004.  Now the daughters of the third brother are claiming share in self earned properties for the reason that these properties featured in the original partition suit even though they were not suit schedule properties in that suit. I am the aggrieved son of the third brother. Any opinion please?

The properties joint and self acquired were enlisted by respective owners by thier free will in family settlement and settlement was decreed.

Thereafter it may not possible to claim a share.

 

However you may shwo all related documents to an able counsel specializing in family/property/revenue/civil matters for considered opinion after exmaination of all docs and inputs.
