Time li it for written stateme t

REVATHI NAIDU (Querist) 04 June 2018 This query is : Resolved
What is the time limit for submitting the written statement. I am the defendent. And my advocate didnt suit the wfitten statement after 6 from the case, ie., 2 hearings are gone. Next week is the next hearing. It is a partition case. My sister given case on me for partition. But the property is with her hand and she is collecting the rental income from last 3 years. I asked my advocate to file another case to stop the rental income and ask the tenent to vacate the house becase the house is at coimbatore and i am at mumbai. I need the house for staying for attending the case at coimbatore. But my advocate tells it cost too much to put another case. He didnt prepare the written statement yet now. Only a week is balance for hearing. He has to take my sign by courier. How its possible. And he also tells that it will take atleast 5 years to complete the case. Its a open case. The property is mothers own purchased property. She has given a registred will for equal partition. Only we have to decide how to do the partition. In this situation is it will take 5 years to finish the case.tell me about lok adalat or fast track court or any best way to do fast to complete the matter. What will be the procedure. Otherwise if go for settlement in court. Then what will be the procedure. I am living mumbai and my advocate didnt giving any proper details.iam getting the next hearing date also from e court onĺy. I am having doubt is my advocate tied up with my sister to prolongate the case. Please advice me is it good to continue with him. Some of my friends saying that if one advocate submit written statement then another advocte cannot proceed the case. Is it true.

If you are not happy or convinced with your advocate it is better to change him now.

You should better change advocate who's not acting on your instructions. He was supposed to file written statement that he's not doing and delaying the case to make more money out of you.
The more the civil case get delayed more losses will incur on you.

The written statement needs to be filed within a period of 90 days. As this a partition suit the matter could be settled through mediation or Adalat.
