Notes de l'éditeur

  1. According to the Mitakshara law school a joint family refers only to the male member of a family and extends to include his son, grandson and great-grandson. They collectively have co-ownership/Coparcenary in the Joint Family.Thus a son by birth acquires an interest in the ancestral property of the joint family. Under the Dayabhaga law school the son has no automatic ownership right by birth but acquires it on the demise of his father. In the Mitakshara school the father’s power over the property is qualified by the equal rights by birth enjoyed by a son, a grandson and a great grand -son. An adult son can demandpartition during his father’s lifetime or his three immediate ancestors.  He has a say in the disposition of the family property and can oppose any unauthorized disposition of ancestral or family property .This is not possible under the Dayabhaga school as the father has overall and uncontrolled power over the family property till death. In the Mitakshara system the wife cannot demand partition. She however has the right to a share in any partition affected between her husband and her sons. Under the Dayabhaga this right does not exist for the women because the sons cannot demand partition as the father is the absolute owner.
