What legal steps to take if uncle claims joint property?

Hello, sir. My uncle built a house on joint property without my father's consent. He took my grandfather's approval and built the house, but now he claims it’s his personal property. How can we proceed legally? Can my father apply for a stay order against him? What immediate actions can my father take?

Your father can file a suit for partition or a declaration in court to establish his rightful claim to the joint property. He can also ask the court for a temporary injunction or stay order to stop your uncle from claiming the house as personal property until the case is resolved.
