Gunandhar Chandrappa Neje vs Shridhar Chandrappa Neje Advocate - Shital D. Patil — 57/2025

Case Summary: R.C.S. No. 57/2025 Court Decision: The temporary injunction application was rejected. Key Facts: Gunandhar Chandrappa Neje (plaintiff) sought to restrain his brother Shridhar Chandrappa Neje (defendant) from constructing on adjacent land in Dattawad village, Kolhapur, claiming encroachment on his 3.77 Are property. The defendant argued the ancestral land was partitioned between them in 2007 and he was building only on his own allocated portion. Grounds for Rejection: The court found the plaintiff failed to establish a prima facie case, failed to show balance of convenience in his favor, and would not suffer irreparable loss. Key issues included: the plaintiff suppressed facts about property area increasing from 3.375 to 3.77 Are without explanation; the defendant's construction was completed to lintel level with substantial investment; and credible witness affidavits supported the defendant's partition claim. Both parties bear their own costs. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
