[CORAM : SUNIL P. DESHMUKH, J.]
DATE : 26th JULY, 2017
ORAL JUDGMENT :
1. Heard learned advocate for the petitioners.
2. Petition has been moved against order passed on Exhibit-
48 in Regular Civil Suit No. 199 of 2010 dated 29 th April, 2017,
{2} wp9365-17
rejecting request of the petitioners to reject plaint pursuant to
Order VII, Rule 11 (1) (d) of the Civil Procedure Code.
3. It is the case of petitioners that plaintiff had executed
relinquishment deed after death of father of plaintiff and
defendant No. 2, in favour of defendant No. 1. Further, with
reference to decision of Hon'ble Single Judge of this court in the
case of "Shalini Sumant Raut and Others V/s Miling Sumant Raut and Others"
reported in 2013 (3) Mh.L.J. 364, it is contended that since father of
plaintiff and defendant No. 2 died in 2008, pursuant to said
decision, plaintiff would not have right to ancestral property,
having married in 1974.
4. While rejecting application Exhibit-48, trial court has
considered that defendants have admitted that provisions of
amended section 6 of the Hindu Succession Act would be
applicable and has also observed that legality of relinquishment
deed would have to be determined. It appears that plaintiff has
indeed referred to relinquishment deed having been brought
about by fraud.
5. In the circumstances, it cannot be said that any case has
been made out, which would fall under any of the categories
referred to under Order VII, Rule 11 of the Civil Procedure Code.

6. Writ petition, as such, stands dismissed. It is however,
made clear that observations hereinabove made are for the
purpose of decision of writ petition and shall not have any
further efficacy.
