In Brief
The appellant challenged a decision that confirmed respondent No.3's ownership of evacuee property acquired via public auction and a sale certificate from the Managing Officer. The appellant claimed his predecessors had acquired the same property from the Custodian of Evacuee Property under a different sale certificate, but failed to produce any original documents or official register entries to support this claim. The Supreme Court held that without substantiating his causal connection to the property through the Custodian, the appellant could not question the Managing Officer's jurisdiction or the validity of respondent No.3's sale certificate. The appeal was dismissed.
