I am facing an IPC 338 accident case from four months and the case is in appearance stage in court. My lawyer is suggesting to plead guilty and pay the fine in the court and close the case. He also said that the MVOP petition has nothing to do with the payment of fine and pleading guilty. He said the conviction in IPC 338 does't have any effect on government job or MNC job.
I am having all valid insurance covered to my vehicle.
I am confused, does pleading guilty in criminal case really doesn't have any effect on MVOP civil case? Is this all true?
A user is seeking advice on an IPC 338 accident case and its relation to an MVOP petition. Their lawyer suggests pleading guilty and paying a fine, stating it won't affect the MVOP case or job prospects. However, other advice suggests pleading guilty could negatively impact the MVOP case and absolve the insurance company of liability.

Don't plead guilty contest the case and let it be decide on merit, plead guilty will make adverse effect on MVCP csae. As soon as you plead guilty in sec 338 IPC case, liability of insurancr company will be absolved and you have to face consequences.
