received a sufficient amount towards advance from 'X'. Subsequently 'B' died. When 'X' wants
the property to get registered in his name, the legal heirs refused to register the sale deed. What
remedy is available to the aggrieved party 'X' under C.P.C.?
14. 'A' and 'B' purchased adjacent plots bearing Plot Nos. 250/A and 250/B, each admeasuring 500
sq. yards, from a housing society at Hyderabad. 'A' is a military officer away from Hyderabad for
a long period on transfer. Meanwhile 'B' constructed the house in Plot No. 250/A by mistake, in
the plot of 'A', instead of Plot No. 250/B. On retirement 'A' wants to construct his house but
found that 'B' has constructed a double-storied building in his plot 250/A. 'A' wants his land back
from 'B'. What suit can 'A' institute against 'B' under C.P.C., and what relief can 'A' get?
15. 'X' has entered into a Registered Agreement of Development-cum-GPA in regard to his property
with 'Z'. The GPA does not empower the GPA holder to enter into an agreement of development
with a third party. 'Z' failed to develop the property and expressed his inability to do so. 'X' has
cancelled the GPA by registration. Meanwhile 'Z', taking undue advantage of the GPA, entered
on behalf of 'X' into an agreement of development with a reputed firm 'Y', and 'Y' started the
development work. 'X' wants to stop the development work by 'Y'. What suit can 'X' file to save
his property under C.P.C., who are to be made party to the suit, and what other steps should 'X'
take?

proceedings, was subsequently reinstated by order of the Court. The department denied him his
arrears of salary on the ground of limitation. Is 'A' entitled to the arrears? If so, what are the
exceptions under the Limitation Act?
