About this template
What is this template?
This is a procedural court filing used in Indian civil litigation to bypass the requirement for original documents. It contains specific assertions regarding the death of a borrower, the inheritance of immovable property by a defendant, and the current location of the original sale deed. It is not a substantive motion for judgment or a deed of conveyance.
When should you use it?
Use this filing when an original title document is lost or in the possession of a third party, and you need to rely on a certified copy from the Sub-Registrar. Use a Witness Summons instead if you need a specific individual to bring the original document to court.
Who it's for
- a plaintiff in an Indian civil court who cannot produce an original property sale deed
- a claimant seeking to prove a defendant inherited property from a deceased borrower
