๐ข Short Answer: Technically, you can sell it — but it’s risky business! ๐ฏ๐ง
When a property is involved in a pending court case (lis pendens), selling it might drag the buyer into your legal mess. ๐ฌ Courts often invalidate such sales later! ๐งจ
#RealEstateDisputes #PropertySaleIndia #PendingLitigation #LegalRisksIndia
๐ Legal Explanation:
✅ Section 52 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 governs this situation under the doctrine of Lis Pendens.
✅ It means "during litigation, nothing should be changed" about the disputed property. ๐
✅ A sale made during a dispute may not offer clear, uncontested ownership to the buyer.
