This query is : Resolved
There was a dispute on drain between me & my neighbour which they wanted to encroach.
We filed a case against them on june -2013.
Our lawyer told that the case will be cleared within a few months.
Now its almost one year & still the case is going on.
On our lawyers advice, we submitted all original documents of our house to the court.
But we did not get any receipt of the submitted docs.
Can I get the receipt.
Sir, If i want to get back my original docs now, what is the procedure.
Sir, I want to change my lawyer, what is the procedure.
Plz advice.

File anothert Advocate VP, taking NOC from present Advocate to change Lawyer
Apply Court to return Original Documents, getting xerox as verified by Supt, or Judge as true copies of Doc.

Agree with Mr.Shroff regarding change of vakil.
VP means vakalat petition.
Regarding the duration of the case, one cannot expect that the case shall come to an end within a few months?
I cannot imagine the duration of "a few".
So, one year duration may be due to your opponent who has taken time to file his side arguments/ statements.
That is his right, you or your advocate cannot deny that.
In light of this, the duration is justifiable and cannot be said that it has taken a long duration or delay.
Based on delay, changing the advocate is not desirable and which would invite other problems.
So, consult your advocate
1. for getting back the original deeds.
2. for quick disposal of dispute
3. for alternate solutions

By an application to court for return of documents, you can get back the originals while replacing the same with its photocopies by comparing the same with originals. About changing the lawyer, think twice and decide especially at the juncture wherein you have shelled out lot of money as fees already.
