My company is involved in consulting foreign companies on entry to India. Recently, we charged a company from New Zealand USD 1000 for our services. The transaction was confirmed through an agreement and invoice. As per the agreement, amount paid is non-refundable under any circumstances. The New Zealand company has signed the same.�
Secondly, the services to be delivered had a lead time of 3-4 weeka as already informed to our client.�
They remitted the payment on 2nd Aug, it arrived in our account on 5th July. The amount got credited in our bank account.�
On 7th Aug, I noticed that my account balance reduced and on investigating, I found that the USD 1000 amount was marked "lien". .
1) The bank marked the amount lien without any consultation with me, did not even inform me that they are marking lien.�
2) As per the bank, they received a "recall request" from the foreign bank based on which they marked lien. As per my bank, they say that foreign bank claims that this is a fraudulant trabsacrion and wants to recall the funds.�
As I said, I have the following:�
1) Signed contract from our client (remitter of the funds)�
2)Invoice that we issued.�
3) Lead time for service delivery is 3-4 weeks, while recall came in just 2 days of funds receipr.�
Just for your info., we are banking with the same bank / branch for 5 yrs and receive international transfers very regularly and have never had any troubles.�
My main questions are:�
1) Does the bank reserve the right to mark lien without consultation / consent from me?�
2) Even if they mark lien, isn't the bank supposed to atleast inform me?�
3) Shouldn't the bank have waited for any firm proof of "fraud" transaction as claimed by the foreign bank?�
The reason for recall request seems ro be that remitter got nervous and wanted to call off the transaction.��
I had a word with the remitter on 9th Aug and they said that this must be an error or some security measure by their bank.�
They have written to me on email that they have no objection to the transaction.�
My bankers say that they'll remove the lien after the foreign bank replies and asks them to remove the same.�
What is your opinion on this situation?�

I sent a legal notice to another lawer who cheated me sending a fake HC order which is duly confirmed . One year lapsed. Fees paid already (I avoid to tell how much in detail). Since he begged n promissed to conduct my case without further expenses in lower court I keep calm. But no progress still. He refuses to attend my phone call last four months. In his reply he denied many of my questions raised.After I have given much time to him I conclude he is fraud. Now my question is that can I proceed for further action on him based on his activities n correspondence? Is there limitation period as per law. I req to don't avoid to answer since he is also wearing black coat. Kindly advice

Hi
I took a flat on rent a year on a three-year' agreement. The broker had asked me to pay three-month rent as a brokerage. I had a half of the amount at the start by a cheque and gave him a post dated cheque of Sept 2019. However, since last two months the bedroom has been leaking due to rain and made several requests to the broker and the owner to repair it. However , the broker didn't help , rather he refused to take my calls. Since he has failed to provide his service , I have cancelled the PDC. My question, what will be the consequences. Will I have to pay the PDC amount despite he failed in tue service?

Maintenance claimed by father after years of desertion
Dear All,
I need clarification on the above topic. My father has neglected and deserted my mother and me without any monetary aid or any other form of aid whatsoever for last 30 years. (My mom didn't claim maintenance or divorce as she was scared of him and was a job holder herself). He himself was a Central Govt. Employee for 20 years and then worked in private sector for 30 years drawing decent salary.
After years of hard work and struggle, my mom along with help from my grandparents (mom's side) raised me by herself and I'm currently in a good job. I have taken care of my grandparents till their demise and my mom for all these years as they have done for me. I'm also married and have to take care of those responsibilities too.
Now my father out of nowhere is seeking maintenance under Senior Citizens Maintenance Act (he is 64 years old) after all these years and making threats at my workplace with intent of defaming me.
Request you to kindly help me as to course of action as my father is giving sleepless nights to me and my entire family.
Thank You.
