Hi,

As per the information provided by you, the appeal is within the time period. All the parties to a suit can get a certified copy from the court specially when they want to pursue the matter for appeal.

Appeal period is 30 days but if there is any sufficient cause the court can condone the delay u/sec.5 of the Limitation Act. You can file an objection in Appeal case if you would like to contest.

The period of filing up appeals against a decree or order can be filed in a High Court within ninety days and in any other court in thirty days from the date of the decree or order appealed against.

IS it from Preliminary decree or final decree you should prefer appeal ?

1) once gift deed has been executed by grand father in favour of son George in 1963 then son George becomes absolute owner of the property

2) on death of son George property would pass on to George legal heirs

3) grand father cannot cancel the gift deed on demise of the son George

4) all 6 children of George would have equal share in the property

5) George son cannot claim absolute ownership on basis of the said will as grand father was no longer owner of the property

The circumstances under which the gift deed was cancelled is to be seen. If the gift deed was unregistered, then it can be cancelled at his own wish by the donor because it has no legal impact but if it was a registered gift deed without any condition imposed in it and the said deed was already acted upon by the donee by taking possession of the property and got the records transferred on his name then the cancellation of the said gift deed is invalid and illegal, not binding on the heirs of the title holder subsequent to his intestate death.

Therefore if held that the cancellation of gift deed is invalid and the intestate property held by the donee till his death which was acquired by him through the said gift deed will be shared equally into equal shares among all his legal heirs, it is a valid and perfect judgement as per law.

The above said facts will be the grounds for defending the appeal suit.
