I rented a room through Nestaway in September 2016. I received a notice to vacate within 45 days, which I agreed to. However, when I returned home after a surgery, I found two men dismantling the furniture provided by Nestaway. They claimed they were following company instructions, but my personal belongings were missing or moved. I called the police and filed a formal complaint. The company lawyer tried to resolve the issue without a complaint, but I refused. Can I seek monetary compensation for this experience?

Yes, you can seek monetary compensation. The company’s actions likely constitute breach of contract and unlawful entry, potentially causing you emotional distress and financial loss. You can file a civil suit seeking damages for the missing belongings, the disruption caused, and the distress caused by the incident.

I’m a Canadian citizen and have been living here for the past 10 years. I lent ₹5 lakh to a friend in Jaipur two years ago. He’s been making promises to repay but hasn’t done so. Last year, when I visited India, I had him sign an agreement and give me a cheque for the amount. My brother deposited the cheque, but it bounced due to insufficient funds. I sent him a legal notice, but he refused to accept it. I want to file a court case against him. Here are my questions: 1. Can I file a case even though he didn’t receive the notice? (I’m certain his address is correct.) 2. How long do I have to file the case? 3. Can someone file the case on my behalf while I’m in Canada, or do I have to be present in court?
