This query is : Resolved
My father filed a suit valuation act under 37(2), 27(c) against his 3 brothers. On second case hearing itself the defendants advocate requests to lok adalat. On next hearing the case was changed to lok adalat and we received a letter from sub-ordinate judge to attend mega lok adalat with advocate on 13th feb. Under money suit lok adalat.
My doubts are:
1. Without the plaintiff opinion the case will change to lok adalat court?
2. If the plaintiff not likes to go for that mega lok adalat what are the procedures?
3. If the plaintiff did't attend that lok adalat hearing, what will happen? The judgement will favour to defendents?
4. plaintiff advocate told that the defendents called for compromise we did't go for compromise so they filed case on lok adalat, if we dont like to go that lok adalat we no need to go? Is it right? Without the plaintiff advocate opinion the case will changed to lok adalat? Is it possible? Please help me.

1. In my opinion it would not be disastrous to attend the lok adalat by the plaintiff. After all this lok adalat has also legal standing and its report to the trial court counts as matter proceeded with. May be the respondent may propose a compromise. If such compromise takes place then the main suit filed by the plaintiff will achieve a faster end. The plaintiff if remains absentee before the lok adalat then also it would not matter but the time for the case to end will increase.

None of the parties can be bound to attend the Lok Adalat and even if no compromise reaches in the Lok Adalat, no adverse impact goes to the case and the same is fixed in the same proceedings which was going on. If you are not agree, don't attend the mega lok Adalat.
