1) you have to engage lawyer for filing application for rejection pf plaint under order 7 rule 11

2) you have to state that without admitting the contents of the plaint in the above suit and without prejudice to the rights and contentions of the applicant, the present application under Order VII Rule 11 read with Section 151 CPC is being preferred as the suit of the plaintiff is liable to be rejected on the sole ground that the plaintiff does not have any cause of action against the applicant/and the present plaint is sheer misuse and abuse of power of law.

3) you have to serve copy upon the Plaintiff then filed in court

4) court fees in Karnataka local lawyer can guide you

1. The application is to be drafted and filed, as simple as this.

2. Your lawyer is right in saying that a copy is to be given to the plaintiff. 7/11 application is filed against the plaintiff, so you need to serve him a copy.

3. Every state has its own court fee and suit valuation act. We know the court fee act of only our state, not all the states. So for this you need to consult a local lawyer alone.

4. You can simultaneously file the application to vacate injunction.

Dear Sir,

What your advocate said is correct because copies of your application for rejection of plaint has to be served on the other side to facilitate them to file objections and another copy shall be given to Hon’ble Judge. After receiving objections from other side, it will be decided after hearing both the parties. If it is decided against you then you can prefer a revision before the Hon’ble High Court. Such applications shall be entertained rarely however High Court has vast power to pass suitable orders if you made out any valid legal ground to reject the plaint. The format and the provision are as follows:

====================================================================================

11. Rejection of plaint.- The plaint shall be rejected in the following cases:—

(a) where it does not disclose a cause of action;

(b) where the relief claimed is undervalued, and the plaintiff, on being required by the court to correct the valuation within a time to be fixed by the court, fails to do so;

(c) where the relief claimed is properly valued, but the plaint is written upon paper insufficiently stamped, and the plaintiff, on being required by the court to supply the requisite stamp paper within a time to be fixed by the Court, fails to do so;

(d) where the suit appears from the statement in the plaint to be barred by any law;

(e) where it is not filed in duplicate;

(f) where the plaintiff fails comply with the provision of Rule 9.

Provided that the time fixed by the court for the correction of the valuation or supplying of the requisite stamp papers shall not be extended unless the court, for reasons to be recorded, is satisfied that the plaintiff was prevented by any cause of an exceptional nature from correcting the valuation or supplying the requisite stamp papers, as the case may be within the time fixed by the court and that refusal to extend such time would cause grave injustice to the plaintiff.

Hello,

7/11 application can be filed without serving the notice on the other party and thereafter the court will issue the notice on the other party.

Court fee can be told to you by the local lawyer, kindly get in touch with a local lawyer.

This is my response to you:

1. The application for rejection can be served to other side beforehand also;

2. But it is better that you submit before the judge first, wherein the department will verify if any objection or no then keep it for hearing;

3. The court fees will be decided accordingly: https://www.legalcrystal.com/act/54536/karnataka-court-fees-and-suits-valuation-act-1958-schedule-i

4. You can also file an application for injunction separately or add as one of the prayers in the rejection application.

1. the application has to be first filed in the court department which will give you a stamp or lodging number for that application

2. then you can serve it on the Plaintiff and other parties to the suit

3. mention the matter by moving a precipe before the court to list your rejection application on board

4. the court will give you a date and will also direct to serve the copy of the application on the other party

5. then your lawyer can inform the other party about the court given date for hearing on the rejection application

6. Alternately to the above, on the next date of hearing in your matter, your lawyer can simply submit the un-numbered rejection application to the court and also simultaneously serve the copies to the other side

7. the court will then return the un-numbered application for filing in the relevant department and will also assign next date for hearing on the application. By the next date the other side can give his reply to your application

8. after the reply is submitted by other side, you can seek leave of the court to file a rejoinder to the reply for which court will give you sometime and the matter will be posted to next date for hearing OR you can simply proceed for hearing on the application

9. you can simultaneously file application to vacate stay and request the court to hear both your applications together. The other side will be given time to file reply to both your applications.

10. the application for vacating stay has to be filed within the limitation period. If limitation period has lapsed then a separate condonation of delay application explaining the reason of delay will have to be filed alongwith the application to vacate stay

11. as per CPC, to vacate a stay order, an Appeal from Order is required to be filed in High Court against an interlocutory order made by a sub-ordinate court. This appeal has to be filed within the period of limitation from the date of the stay order

In a suit you are a defendant.

If there is an interim injunction order passed agaisnt you, then you may contact your advocate and file a petition under Order XXXIX Rule 4 CPC to vacate the injunction order on the basis of the substantial reasons and grounds with the support of documentary evidences.

Any application filed before court, a copy of the same has to be served on the opposite party.

The court fee differs from one state to another, hence this may be clarified from the local court itself.
