A private complaint has been filed in Borivli Magistrate Court in Mumbai against some relations over genuineness of will. The Complainant was residing in Borivli in Mumbai ( now in BELGAUM in Karnataka) at that time. The testator of the Will was in Grant Road, in Mumbai, which comes under the jurisdiction of Girgaum Magistrate Court in Mumbai.Hence, the complaint should have filed in Girgaum Court. I am not a party to the case.
Could I have some expert opinion on my opinion with citations.
