Warrant of Possession

Warrant of Possession is a term used for a legal document issued by the court for taking assistance from the local police for taking possession of a certain property. There are matters in which people often do not comply with the orders of court in the transfer of possession. In such cases the court has to use the force to implement its orders.

There is a petition filed in the executing court for the issuance of warrant of possession. For that the petitioner has to satisfy the court by putting grounds for the issuance of warrant of possession. Once the court is satisfied the warrants of possession are issued.

Warrant of possession are usually issued by the civil court or the rent controllers in cases where possession has to be transferred from one person to another. They are generally not required in cases where parties strictly comply with the orders of executing court.

Warrant of possession is the last stage in the implementation of court's order. It is generally issued when court has no other option left in the execution of its orders. Generally the court order is implemented through a bailiff. However when things are out of control of bailiff then the issuance of warrant of possession becomes mandatory.

Jurisdiction in case of Succession Matters

One of the most commonly filed cases are of succession. The succession cases are filed for obtaining succession certificates. A succession certificate is required when a person dies and leave property behind. The legal heirs of the deceased are also called the successors which are determined through the succession certificate.

Succession Certificate is mandatory for obtaining amounts lying in the bank accounts of dead person. Without succession certificate the banks cannot legally release the amounts lying the banks. Similarly this certificate is important in cases where the shares and certificates are owned by the dead person as they cannot be distributed legally without succession.

Succession Certificate is obtained through civil court. A case is filed against public at large for obtaining the certificate. Usually a Succession case runs between 3 to 6 months and eventually the certificate is obtained.

The jurisdiction in succession cases can be any district where property or part of property of deceased is situated at the time of his/her death. That is determined through section 371 of the Succession Act 1925. One case can be filed for all properties situated in different jurisdictions.

Section 371 of the Succession Act 1925 determines the jurisdiction

When a person dies his/her succession opens up. The legal heirs of the deceased can claim their rights over the legacy of deceased only once they are declared as successors or legal heirs through the court.

In such circumstances the legal heirs have to file a suit in the court of senior civil judge. According to section 371 of the Succession Act 1925 the jurisdiction in succession matter is of the court where property is situated at the time of death of person.

However another aspect the same provision of law is that if part of the property is situated in a district then the jurisdiction lies there also.

The point is that the case of succession can be filed at any destination where property of part of property of deceased exists. That means all the property situated in different jurisdictions can be distributed through a single case filed at any place where one or more of the properties are located.
