Breach of status quo

MahendraKumar.H.Trivedi (Querist) 26 February 2018 This query is : Resolved
Sirs
I am repeating query as I could not hire new lawyer and dates are moving fast at crucial stage. I am defendant. I will keep it short.
I have breached status quo in title suit for plot under performance act , my lawyer hired by my late poa did not inform me of stay and not even when suit proceedings started and started defense. Halfway through plaintiffs came to know about breach defeating very purpose of suit. Plot sold by Mr to their sub tenants) Plaintiffs file contempt application u/O 39 rule 2 a
Stay was granted before suit came on board. Breach committed 6 years before application filed by plaintiffs in 2015. It has been two years / Till date I have not received notice / summons but may soon.
My lawyer did not file reply against contempt application and left as altercation took place over not informing of stay. He had informed my poa now late who is also named defendant.
My query is is not plaintiffs breach of status quo / contempt application barred by time limit as they brought the breach to court's notice after 6 years of actual contempt( I executed sale deed in favor of actual possessors / sub tenants of plaintiffs)
Regards

Take help of some local lawyer after showing him the case related documents for his examination in detail and to represent your case properly in the court.

Seemingly, an academic query.

Sirs, lawyer did not inform me of stay and now I am facing contempt application under rule 39 2a and not under contempt act 1971. Sirs I am in dire strait due to lawyers gaffe. Not only that he ditched me now when hearing on plaintiffs applications is about to begin. Only defense I have is stay was violated 9 years back and was reported to court after 6 years. No Good lawyer is taking my case as case is moving fast. Please for time being if you could tell me that time limit would be applicable or not. Regards

Every step of the case can not be spoon fed, you will have no option but to seek professional services of a local prudent lawyer, if you want to defend your case properly.

If your lawyer ditched you, do you feel that you alone can defend your case without the help of any lawyer? If the lawyer ditched you, you may hire services of some other knowledgeable lawyer. More so, no advice may suit you unless the case related documents are studied in detail. Forget that you can fight your case merely on casual type of advice on your casual query.

Better still to seek Free Legal Aid from State / District Legal Service Authority which can provide some lawyer on its Legal Aid Panel to take care of your matter in the court.
