Hi All,
Iam a retired person and 65 years old. I own a two bedroom house in chennai. Last Year, i rented one of my bedrooms to a Tailor Shop. I had a written agreement of 1 year (though the agreement was not registered in the court). Beginning of this year i gave him the notice to vacate the premise. The reason was that i need that rented bedroom because my son and his wife wanted to come over to my house and stay with us together.
The tenant filed a lawsuit by stating several charges including myself trying to threaten him with rowdies. In the month of October 2010, the Court took this hearing and dismissed all the charges. The final judgement on the suit will be on next year.
Now my question is
1) Whether the Case will keep prolonging for years together. The Tenant is asking 2 lakhs to vacate the premise. Should i need to wait on the Judicial System or pay him the required money so that i can remain peaceful.
2) What are the chances of the Case going in favour of the Tenant. Like, can he ask Court for more time.
3) Are there any legal points in the state of TamilNadu (in particular Chennai) that allows the Retired Senior Citizen like myself to have quick judgement of the case (like showing iam unhealthy and need quick turn around).
All these questions revolve around the estimated time for completion of the case. Since iam retired senior citizen i don't want the case to continue for life-long.
Thanks & Regards
Murali
