My family has been facing a legal dispute over a property since 2012. After winning the case in court, we obtained possession in 2013, but the other party vanished. We finally tracked them down after repeated attempts, but they appealed the verdict, even though the time limit had passed. The court surprisingly allowed the appeal, claiming the other party was not given a chance to respond. However, the truth is, they were given multiple opportunities to appear in court but chose not to. This feels unfair, as they should not be rewarded for their own inaction. What legal options do I have to ensure justice is served?

You can file an application to the court challenging the order allowing the appeal, highlighting the previous attempts to serve notice and their deliberate non-appearance. The court can review the circumstances and decide if the appeal should be dismissed based on the legal principle of “waiver” where a party loses their right due to inaction.

I’ve been living in an apartment I rented through NestAway for over a month now, but still haven’t received the rent agreement. This is causing me trouble as I need it to claim my HRA/IT exemption. Despite repeated calls and emails, I’m only getting the same reply that the landlord can’t be contacted or they’re waiting for the signed copy. Would it be possible to take this issue to the Consumer Forum?

We moved into this place, and both the broker and the landlord said two people could be on the lease but 4 could live there for the same rent. Three of us lived here, and we never met the owner until a month before our lease ended. Now she’s saying she wasn’t told about the extra person and wants to deduct ₹50,000 from our deposit. What can we do?

My lease in Andheri East ends on November 30th and I’m moving out that day. However, my landlord is trying to deduct unnecessary expenses from my security deposit. He’s asking for: 1. An extra 15 days’ rent, even though I notified him on November 12th that I wouldn’t renew the lease. 2. AC installation costs from the previous tenant, which aren’t mentioned in our current agreement. 3. Paint repairs due to roof leaks, claiming it’s not normal wear and tear. 4. The cost of two gas cylinders provided to the previous tenant. I’m worried about these charges and need help understanding what’s fair.

My family and I are shifting to a new flat within our apartment complex. However, the society is charging Rs. 1,500 for moving out and in. Is this a valid charge? Where can we lodge a complaint?

My rent was due on the 12th of August, but I couldn’t pay it. I need to deposit the rent in court. What are my options?

Next Article Living in Manohar Park, New Delhi, I run a small, eco-friendly paper godown on the first floor of a two-story building. Recently, MCD officials visited and demanded I close down the godown. However, many other houses in the colony have godowns storing hazardous chemicals and engine oil, which seem to escape scrutiny. Given my limited resources, I feel targeted, as others appear to bribe officials to avoid action. Any advice on how to navigate this situation?
