Even an intermeddler with estate of deceased can also be allowed to represent estate for purpose of pending proceedings before Court. The decision as to who is legal representative for purpose of proceedings is necessarily limited for the purpose of carrying on the proceeding and cannot have effect of conferring of any right of heirship to the estate of deceased. The decision on this issue also does not operate res judicata on the question of heirship in subsequent proceedings. Therefore, the enquiry into right to heirship is not the determining factor in deciding whether a person is or is not a legal representative for the purpose of proceedings before the Court. What is required to be considered is whether the person claiming to represent the estate of deceased for purpose of lis has sufficient interest in carrying on litigation. In case of rival claimants, it may also be necessary to decide that out of the rival claimants, who is the person entitled to represent the estate for purpose of particular proceedings. Even that determination does not result in determination of inter se right to succeed to property of the deceased and that right has to be established in independent proceedings in accordance with law. 10- fot;y{eh t;jke cuke ,e-vkj- ijljke ,oa vU; ,-vkbZ-vkj- 1995 vkU/kz iznsk ist 351 ds n`"VkUr fuEu fopkj O;ä fd;k x;k gS % (A) Civil P.C.
