When is a matter is claimed as a dispute

(Querist) 01 November 2016 This query is : Resolved 
Hello All

Respected experts

I want to know the legal definition of the word 'dispute'.

I am a sr.citize aged around 70 yrs.and have no more academic interest in knowing the meaning of 'dispute'. However, I am interested because it will help me in my matter indirectly, which is running in court of law.

A govt. organization mentioned, that there is a dispute between two parties, however, they did that even before we filed our say, hence want to challenge the organization. Due to certain security reasons, I am not able to mention any further details of the case at the moment, however my question is,

1.when someone file a case in civil court can it be called a dispute?

2.when the opposite party submit vakalatnama on getting summon from the court is it called dispute?

3.when the opposite party provided written
say, denying the facts in the pitiniors allegations, can be called a dispute?

Also, if there are any judgment or official record stating the meaning of the word "dispute", it will be helpful and beneficial to me. Hope, I am able to put forward my point.

Thanks in advance to all.

I asked the same question on http://www.lawyersclubindia.com/experts/Legal-defination-621416.asp, however, it was marked as resolved, hence starting a new thread, with the details, for more information.

1) No
Difference in the opinion amount to dispute.

2)No summon is issued to produce the party before the court.
3)Written statement is given by both party.

More than a 'dispute', what matters in a civil case is the 'cause of action', giving rise to a grievance as to violation or infringement of some 'right'

In my view, as Mr. Kumar Doab's general & good advice is available on his profile, "Kindly consult a local lawyer at your location along with all documents on record in person and understand the merits and proceed under expert advise of your able counsel'" you may like to follow his advice if that benefits you. He may probably like to give you some additional advice also on your academic query, as per his liking for the same.

Since you have stated, "Due to certain security reasons, I am not able to mention any further details of the case at the moment," I don't think he would mind your personal message if you send detail privately through his PM box at his profile, as he feels pleasure in responding to academic type of queries.

You may also file advice of Shri Rajendra K Goyal.

However, if you want solution with particular reference to your real problem at this page, you may have to discuss the case history in detail here only.
