Pre-filing-
Before moving into proper litigation, lawyers try to settle the disputes through negotiation, arbitration, legal notices etc... So, an aggrieved party need not go in court lengthy procedure and also preparation for proper litigation is the pre-filing stage.
Initial pleading-
From here pleading starts. Aggrieved party files plaint in the court and hereafter all the court procedures start.
plaint copy-
once the suit has been registered or instituted, Copy of plaint will be sent by a court to the other party who is involved in dispute and date for summoning will be mentioned.
Pre-trial-
In this stage, all the evidences and witnesses should be gathered. Written statement preparation for filing shall be done. They might engage in an alternative way of settlement, and they may file motions with the court to resolve the case or limit the issues for trial.
Appearance–
On the day of appearance, the written statement shall be filed by the defendant. In case, if no written statement has been filed, the court may take a decision on the basis of the plaint.
Trial-
Proper trial begins once a written statement filed by the other party i.e defendant. During this stage, the matter lies before the judge as per court jurisdiction and document verifications, examining of witnesses, presentation of evidences, hearings, arguments from both the sides, shall be done.
Post-trial-
Once final arguments are done, an order shall be passed by the judge. If any party is aggrieved by the order, then they move in the high court for an appeal.
But not every civil case follows these stages. Some cases (summary eviction cases, for example) have unique procedures that are set out in the court's rules or in the governing statutes.
Appeals which are filed against the decision or order of civil cases are known as civil appeals which are governed by The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. Any order /decree passed by the district judge can be challenged in the High Court. Anyone can file Appeal if a decision has been given EX-PARTE (which means, the order passed just by hearing one party).
A decree passed by Appellate civil court is considered to be First Appeal and if such decree is challenged before the High Court is considered as a matter of Second Appeal. The second Appeal can only be filed in the matter of Ex-Parte decree passed by the court and where the court is satisfied that matter of the substantial question of law is involved.
For every appeal, there is some time limit, within which appeal should be filed according to the Limitation Act.
The limitation period for the appeal varies like:
Appellant is required to give Court fee, which is not very high, and once it filed, the notice shall serve to the opposite party also.
