P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 05/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 29683 of 2010 I ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 5th day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner submits that on the strength of Ext.P1, an unregistered Will executed by his father, he obtained title over 49.2 Ares of property in Re.Survey No.579/11 of Amballur village. While the petitioner was continuing in occupation and enjoyment of the property, he executed Ext.P3 sale deed, conveying 2.65 Ares in favour of the person mentioned therein and presented the document for registration before the first respondent. By Ext.P4 objection, the first respondent declined to register the document on the basis that the petitioner obtained the title on the strength of a Will, which is not a registered document. It is thereupon this writ petition is filed. 2. Will is not a compulsorily registrable document. If so, the objection raised by the first respondent in Ext.P4 is clearly unsustainable. Therefore, quashing Ext.P4 and WPC.29683/10 : 2 : directing that if Ext.P3 is otherwise a valid document, the same will be taken up for registration in accordance with law, this writ petition is disposed of. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) aks
