Hello,
If a suit is pending with regards to the property then it is not advisable to file a partition suit.
However the same can be filed and the same will always be subject to the outcome of the pending suit.
Regards
A, B and C are siblings who own a property jointly. The property title is currently in dispute with X, and a status quo with regards to the title of property is in court. Can A and B file a partition against C before the title issue is settled?

No as for the partition suit first primary decree is passed deciding title of the property then final decree of partition is passed so till the title is not settled they cannot demand partition.
hello,
the property is in dispute between A B C on one hand and X on the other. therefore, unless it is decided whether the property belongs to either A B C or X, a partition suit cannot be filed because if the property went to X, then A B C would not get anything.
regards
partition suit can be filed for division of property by metes and bounds
2) both suits can be clubbed together
Any time you can file partition suit due to the order of status quo.When passing a preliminary decree in partition suit , the court will look whether the property is Partible or not? If it is not partible , .A B C would not get anything.the time and expenses loose..
Since title of suit schedule property is in dispute it's not advisable to file suit for partition. In case you file for partition the court will look into the title which will be the outcome of present suit as such it's advisable to wait till present suit judgment is obtained then file suit for partition to prevent unwanted loss of time and expenses.
1. there is no restrain in filing a partition suit among A, B and C.
2. However since there is dispute as regards title as well with X it is advisable if X is also made a party in the suit and declaration is also sought in the same partition suit that X has no share in the property sought to be partitioned.
When a status quo is in force the property cannot be alienated that means you can't enter into a sale agreement or deed with others in respect of the property and cannot develop the same by way of demolition or construction on the site. At the same time that will not restrain you to file a suit against other siblings. Contesting a suit against X will not affect your right to file a partition suit.
1. Partition Deed is possible, by taking permission of the Court, wherein all the Three Joint-Owners can give undertaking in the Court, to continue the dispute and abide by the final order.
2. Conducting Partitition proceedings is NOT going to give any relief /immunity from the pending dispute, in any manner, to any of the three owners.

This is my response to you:
1. It is advisable for your to wait for the judgment of this court on the title;
2. This is because it creates unnecessary confusion for the judge as well;
3. Though, you can apply for partition suit in the same case and distribute A, B and C's share, still it is advisable to wait.
It is not clear who X is and whether the property is in his possession and enjoyment presently. Is X a tenant? In any case, the partition issue can be taken up only after the title issue is settled by court.
Till the title issue is pending I don't think party will be entertained. As partition can only be for clear title property
The proeprty is currently in dispute with X.
Who is this X?
If X is not involved in the partition or not related to the proeprty why the dispute in court about this and what is the case pending before court?
How is the property belonging to ABC?
There can be no transaction done in the proeprty when the proeprty is under dispute before any court of law moreover there is status quo order in effect hence any such thing may lead to a contempt of court also.
So better be careful on that aspect.
