Imposing costs without considering the plea

Imposing Costs without considering the plea

 

The case was posted for arguments on Review Application in Addl District Judge Court. The party requested adjournment for 2-3 days due to the ill health. The party showed the medical prescripttion also to the court. The court did not even bother to look at it. It was just the first adjournment after the review application was posted for arguments. The court granted adjournment after imposing costs.

 

1.Is the action of the Court in imposing costs justified?

2.Is it a valid ground for requesting the transfer of the case to other court?

3. What should be done to get the order reversed? (Even though it is a small cost but it is a matter of principle)

1. Generally court Court adjourn matters, but in some cases it gives cost which is a common practice.

2. This is not a sustainable ground for transferring your case.

3. You can file application for reviewing the order of cost or approach  the higher Court.
