Land dispute

This query is : Resolved
Dear Experts,
Recently, I bought 2200 SQ FT land property (DTCP approved in 1992) that was previously disputed by neighbor and resolved in local civil court.
The property went through the following facts:
1) In 2008, Neighbor broke boundary wall built by pervious owner, filed a petition in court that he owns some (560 SQ FT) of the property, as per his registration document, he bought his property in 2002 with attached hand written site layout plan (which are incorrect as per actual Municipality layout plan).
2) March 2017, Court verified municipality layout plan, surveyor report, disposed case as "Uncontested and DISMISSED WITH COSTS".
He came to know that new owners brought the property, he intruded, broke our new boundary wall overnight without court order and plotted layout marking stones as per his document. I certainly do have proper valid registration documents, DTCP approved layout plan and GOVT surveyor report.
Please advice,
1) If i can file criminal case legally as he violated judgement made by local civil court?
2) How can i quickly resolve this dispute? Remedies?
Thank you!

Lodge a FIR against him for trespassing your property and damaging it with local police.
Move application against him in the court for contempt of court order.
Move ahead with your building plans as per approved schedule on the plot of land.
Engage security guards on the property for preventing any further intrusion by any outsiders.

Yes, you can move civil as well criminal courts; a police complaint could also be lodged.
