Ramesh Hirachand Kundanmal v. Municipal Corporation of Greater Bombay
Amit Kumar Shaw v. Farida Khatoon
V.N. Krishna Murthy v. Ravikumar
National Insurance Company Limited Vs. Pranay Sethi and Others
Kesari Goutham Reddy v. Velpula John Victor Macaulay
The court affirmed that a purchaser pendente lite is a necessary party in ongoing litigation to ensure all parties with legitimate interests are heard.
A pendente lite purchaser can be added as a party to ongoing litigation to protect substantial interests, and such applications should typically be granted without prejudice.
The court emphasized that a transfer pending litigation is not void but subservient to the ongoing suit, affirming judicial discretion to allow impleadment to protect bona fide purchasers' rights.
Pendente lite purchasers must seek leave under O.XXII R.10 CPC to continue suit, not implead via O.I R.10(2).
Pendente lite purchasers from co-owners are necessary parties in partition suits, and sales executed after the expiration of interim injunctions are valid and subject to the suit's outcome.
A subsequent purchaser of property cannot claim right to appeal if the purchase violates an existing temporary injunction, reinforcing principles of lis pendens and judicial integrity.
The doctrine of lis pendens prevents a subsequent purchaser from acquiring rights in property under litigation; such purchasers are not necessary parties to the suit.
