Simultaneous/concurrent hearing of two parallel suits in same court

(Querist) 21 February 2011 This query is : Resolved 
I have a set of twin cases which arose out of the exact same set of facts, have the same cause of action, but only differ in a number of minor details such as the date of the deed and quantum of amount claimed. although both suits are heard in the same court, they are heard on different dates and there is a lot of duplication of effort on everyone's part in proceeding with the case. can i make an application to the court to hear and make the cases concurrent/simultaneous along with all steps and adjournments therein? if so, under which provision of the CPC can i make such an application? any help will be highly appreciated.

Yes file a petition for analogous hearing of both the cases. The court should have directed you to do this long ago.

Does it fall under any provision of the CPC?
Parveen Kr. Aggarwal (Expert) 22 February 2011
Section 151 of the CPC.

a simple memo is enough for joint trail. otherwise file a petition under section 10 of CPC to day the other case.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 22 February 2011
I agree with Mr.Ganesan.
Parveen Kr. Aggarwal (Expert) 22 February 2011
Dear Mr. S. Ganesan,

Section 10 of the CPC provides for stay of the subsequent suit. The query is with regard to the provision for clubbing of the suits.
