Car accident - Victim Injured Car accident - Victim Injured

2 years ago

I was involved in an accident while returning from Assam to Bangalore by car. By mistake I hit a motor cycle and the person got injured. This happened on 21-Oct-2020. An FIR was filed and my details were taken at the police station. Accident happened in Satna, Madhya Pradesh. And I am from Andhra Pradesh. I had attended the court once and paid the fine and also paid for victim's treatment. Should I be attending the court again? How many times should I attend the court? Victim or his relatives does not come to the court. Please help me in this.

A.Dear Sir,
If you have paid the fine then criminal case would be treated as closed. Get certified copies of all the documents through local advocate and then seek legal expert. You need not attend the Court once fine is paid.

A.This being a criminal matter I don't think you will have to come to criminal Court at every hearing. On the Court date when your presence shall require you will be summoned by the Court that you may come with your lawyer to attend the hearing and represent yourself through a lawyer and additionally either you can request the police officer associated with your case to keep you updated in the matter or you may hire an advocate to keep you posted of the matter. Also in your case it is advisable that you apply for quash of FIR in your matter in the High Court of Madhya Pradesh since the other side seems least interested in the case. If FIR is quashed (though it is time and money consuming process being Writ Petition in the High Court) matter will be closed forever. Thank you.

A.Yes, you have to face the trial of hit and run of different section of IPC and if injured want to claim for compensation then it will be another case against you. First be sure when will be chargesheet file by the police officer before the concerned magistrate then you have to arrange any surety for taking your bail. You should hire any lawyer for your cases.

A.Hi,
There are provisions under which the requirement of personal appearances can be dispensed with. Once you have appointed a legal representative, he can move an application to the court to dispense off with the requirement of personal appearances by giving proper reasoning.

A.Hi,
You can move an application through your advocate to dispense off the personal appearance requirement, stating that your reason that you live in another state and travelling is not feasible. If you have appointed a legal representative, then the requirement of personal appearance can be dispense with. Same goes for the victim and his family as well.

A.Agar aap dawara apne case ko harjana ada karke samapt kara liya hai. Tab aap ko court jaane ki need nhi hai. Kyonki case final rup se decided kar diya gya hai. Kya aap ke advocate dawara us order ki copy nhi li. Agar nhi li to aap ko us order ki copy lekar apne pass rakhna chahiye.
Agar decided nhi hua hai tab aap ko dusri baar court jaana hoga. Aap apne advocate se contact kare ki kya case final rup se decision kar diya gya hai.
