I am having an ownership office in fort area measuring 115 sq.ft. and have paid stamp duty on sale deed. In 2002 my office was broken in to by the managing committee and police has registered an FIR in Dec. 2003. Since then the society has managed and forced me to to keep the office closed and have even disconnected the common power supply to my room. They are not giving permission to me to get a new meter and the criminal case against accused office beares is still on in Ballard Pier Court. I have and still suffering losses due to this and now want to file a petition in the court against the society for damages of Rs. 10Lacs. Kindly guide me suitably in following queries:
1) What will be court fee on Rs. 10Lacs ?
2) I should file a WP in High Court or approach Coop Court ? Are coop court empowered to sanction compensation ?
3) Will the court ask the defendants to first diposit say Rs.5Lacs in the event they challange the WP ?
4) What happens to court fee in the event I loose the case ?
Regards,
