Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in India

Hi,

I live overseas, my father died in 2001 in india and he used to own a business with some partners. I didn't had any information about that business transactions etc. My mom (who is in india) just received a summon now (after 8-9 years) from a vendor to claim for money which is pending during the business time. I am not into the business at all and neither did I inherited that business. Just wondering if I am liable for that and also I beleive they(partners/vendor) are making false claims and therefore just wanted to know if I can file a case against them for mental torture/tension.

Thanks, Jetix

First of all u r not liable coz u did not get anything from business rest i have to go through ur notice as the claim can be filed only within 3 years.

And further through this notice u can findout the wareabouts of the business and ur share in business also.

you need to hire a lawyer and you need to send a power of attorney duly notarized in his favour and he would defend your case.
