• Boundary wall dispute

My neighbour broke my boundary wall quoting that it has been built on a common space. But my house deed papers have clearly marked that I have built the wall on my premises or space. 
My neighbour also got a sec 144 iissued by his lawyer. But it is not a common space to what our paper and measurement says. My neighbour is false. 

NOW I want to know the following 
1. As i have my house deed papers where its clearly shows measurements/markings of my space / premises and so i can construct my boundary wall 
HOW TO TAKE HELP OF LAW OR POLICE AND WHAT ARE THE LEGAL NECCESSARY STEPS TO BE TAKEN LAWFULLY ??
How much time the court takes to issue me orders to reconstruct my own wall on my same premises??

2. DO i need to have any other court order for police protection as we fear when I will start reconstructing my boundary wall they may attack us

3. The house is in the name of my mother and she is suffering from old age illness. So can she issue Authority powers to her son for attending the courts and doing signatures on her behalf and also attend the construction work and proceedings ??

Firstly, you file a case for permanent injunction on your neighbours to not to interrupt you further.

Secondly, you can't build it now as there has been a dispute on it.

Thirdly and lastly, please request the judge in your suit to let you allow to construct it on the ground of its necessity otherwise it would be difficult to leave under the purview of insecurity or something like the same reason.

Good Luck...!

Out-rightly file a suit for permanent injunction requesting the court to pass an order to the effect that the neighbours be directed to refrain themselves from further obstruction. The same will take time to get decided, till then as an interim measure request the court to give you police protection so that you may carry on the construction on your land.

Since the house is in the name of mother, the mother may give POA to some person for filing and fighting the case.

Seek an injunction restraining your neighbour from interfering with your peaceful possession over your house.

It is advisable that you obtain police protection before you start reconstructing your wall.

1. In these circumstances you can file a suit for recovery of damages against your neighbour to make him liable for the loss occasioned to you due to the demolition of the wall. Also seek permanent injunction against him to stop him from causing further damage to your property.

2. Aside of the civil remedies mentioned above, a criminal complaint for house trespass and mischief should also be filed against him.

3. Your mother can certainly execute a GPA in your favout to authorise you to file the civil suit and attend the court.
