Hello Experts,
Thanks for your wonderful helps to ordinary citizens like me who are illiterate on Indian laws. Let me brief out my story and hope someone give me proper guidelines.
Around 2010 I lost my family members in a bus accident near be Chennai . After several up/down trip to police station and a push from HC, the police who handled the accident finally gave me the FIR report, postmodern report etc. My lawyer filed a lawsuit on the car company and insurance companies and other parties involved in the accident. The lawsuit was filed in MACT around mid of 2010.
Now after 4 years, when I asked the status of the lawsuit, my lawyer said that the police didn’t file the charge sheet yet therefore one of the insurance parties included in the lawsuit is bailed out! I don’t know what that mean. I called the local police station and spoke to Inspector today, he said, they didn’t file the charge sheet yet!! I don’t get it. I don’t know what I have to do to get this running!
So, questions to the experts:
- What would happen if police didn’t file the charge sheet in time for this kind of situation?
- What I need to do in order to get the police to file the charge sheet?
- Does my lawyer need to wait for the charge sheet filed?
- How long normally take this kind of case to get resolved by MACT?
- Any question I should have asked here which I don’t have knowledge to ask?
Please help me out brothers & sisters.
Thanks,
-Mano
