MSo you haven’t even engaged the lawyer. Just pay whatever consultation charges there are and engage some different counsel.MI won’t go into the merits of the case as it’s something I’m not completely aware of.
As for what would happen if you refuse to pay the fees, I assume you guys must agreed on x amount of fees if the demand of 10 lakh was subsequently made. In the case, take the case back from the lawyer and engage someone else.
MLawyer here.OP conveniently withholding the valuation of land. Probably the valuation is something based on which the fees has been decided.
And remember, there are two cases or very different nature. One is a suit for declaration and the other is reference for enhancement of compensation.
It’s a common practice to charge x% of enhanced compensation or the valuation of the property. Although the same is looked down upon, the lawyer will get quote his own fee based on those calculations.
Tl;dr if the valuation is assumed to be 1Cr, 5 lakhs or 5% for one case is not expensive.
MWow, so many answers just to sympathise with OP.However, everyone fails to understand that homicide with an intention to kill IS MURDER.

MEven in Delhi, that should be sufficient. A designated senior does not appears on every listing date in a trial. Only cross and argument and also arguments on sentencing if convicted. If you can spend that much every month, you might aş well engage Ujjwal Nikam for cross examination and evidence.But as in most of the cases of CBI, almost every other case is appealed, so you should be prepared for that.
MBut on the contrary, if there’s some budding/rising advocate who takes this opportunity as a podium to shine (assuming the case at hand has done debatable factual and legal questions), then that person might try his best.At the end of the day, everyone has their wants and needs. Could be financial or could be intangible like respect and recognition.
MThat’s a matter of perspective. The panel lawyer stands to get only 5000 regardless of the outcome of the case. If you expect someone to perform like Jethmalani for your case, then hard luck mate.MIs it possible? Yes. Does everyone in legal aid do it? No. There are some really great personalities in the legal aid department who genuinely try to help people.Tbh, you get what you pay for and in the present case, you pay nothing and the state pays like 5000 per matter…
Not to demotivate you or anything but just think for yourself whether someone would dedicate his heart and soul for a referred case?
MThe stay is most probably an injunction order restraining the parties for creating any 3rd party interest or alienating the land.What stage the suit is at? Are the witnesses examined and arguments begun? Can’t assume how much time it would take without knowing the present status.
MYes, I recently had a chance to file a similar writ before the Bombay high court wherein certain evidence was “misplaced” by the police authority and based on lack of evidence “a-summary” came to be filed. Though the IO was changed and transferred, but the offence required the investigation to be conducted afresh due to change in evidence.MBring this into the knowledge of CP. If it falls to deaf ears, go before the high court in writ jurisdiction seeking proper investigation and appropriate relief.MFor every 6L+/- p.m. maintenance demand there are thousands of cases where meagre amount of Rs. 1500-2000/- p.m. are also granted by the court, albeit the income gap between those two instances is day and night.Also, general rule of thumb but not always applicable, 1/3rd of the in hand income is a good guess that the court may grant in terms of monthly maintenance.
So I assume you’re earning upwards of 20L per month to be concerned/affected by such orders/influencing reels?
MLook for any provisions which enables you to challenge the decision of the organiser. Else, approach the regulating body of e-sports.MGet a copy of those rules the organisers have cited. It should probably contain a provision for appeals and dispute.MYou cannot “take back a complaint”. An FIR is merely a report on behalf of the information and the offence, if any, is further investigated by the agency (police) and subsequently contested by the state.The informant may depose that he doesn’t want to pursue the FIR and make a statement before the trial court, but that would require you to face trial and in conclusion you will be “acquitted”.
However, if you go the quashing route, the offence against you will be “quashed and set aside” at the stage of investigation/charges itself. That means no trial, no appeal and no way back as the process was stopped midway itself.
Hope, this helps.
