sir
A person X died in an accident.His father , his step mother and children of his step mother filed an claim case refer themselves as an real mother and real brother and sisters, leaving his actual real sister and real mother as party in this claim case and succeed to get award in his favor.my query is that
whether step mother and his children has right to get the same?
whether they committed any fraud with the court to get this compensation?
kindly suggest me that real mother and real sister of deceased should file another claim petitions to get compensation? OR they should file complaint against his step mother ans children of step mother?
And what should they do to get his right for compensation/claim under MVAC Act
It also noted that father of deseased who filed claim petition has alreay been died now.

Step mother and children cannot file a claim petition. Real mother and brothers can file an application in the case filed by step mother to implede them as petitioners
OR they can also file another case claiming the compensation. The respondent will bring it to the notice of the court that already one case is pending filed by step mother.
