Appointment of an Advocate-Commissioner under Order XXVI Rule 9 is justified for local investigation when property existence is disputed, aiding effective adjudication without merely collecting evide....
The appointment of an Advocate Commissioner is unnecessary when sufficient evidence exists to determine the facts in a partition suit.
The appointment of an Advocate Commissioner in a partition suit is unnecessary if sufficient evidence has already been presented by the parties involved.
The appointment of an Advocate-Commissioner is unwarranted in the absence of genuine ambiguity regarding property identification; the burden to prove ownership lies with the plaintiffs.
The Advocate Commissioner's report is non-adjudicatory and serves only to assist the court, not to bind it in decision-making.
An Advocate Commissioner can be appointed to verify physical features of property but not to ascertain possession in a suit for injunction.
