https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=279617 A suit challenging a private partition and seeking a declaration of joint ownership remained cognizable by the civil court because the dispute raised a question of title. Section 158(17) of the Punjab Land Revenue Act bars partition-related matters, but that bar does not apply where the defendants deny the plaintiff's title and the relief sought includes declaration of ownership with consequential relief.
