My grandfather bought land from a friend who later claimed it after family dispute

Question

Do we have a chance if we appeal despite not having the deed on our hand and the land title that we have before was canceled by the court due to the ongoing dispute?

Romano Law Office · Accepted Answer

Yes, because your grandpa's transaction with his friend was valid, assuming your grandpa has paid the price. If there is a family dispute in his friend's family, it doesn't invalidate the sale. The least that your grandpa can do is ask for a refund from his friend, otherwise, he becomes a creditor to his friend's family with a lien on the land.
