What is Small Claims Bench?

The Jupitice Small Claims bench is a specialised arbitration bench that undertakes expedited or fast-track arbitration procedures. An individual filing a case with the Jupitice Small Claims Bench must ensure that the claim amount does not exceed Rs. 50,00,000.

Disputants no longer need to depend on a lawyer to represent their case as, with Jupitice, self-representation is now reality. The Small Claims Bench saves disputants from the hassles of approaching a traditional court and watching their claim amount get consumed in expensive litigation.

The Jupitice Small Claims Bench ensures the delivery of a Deemed Court Decree in less than 30 days from anywhere, anytime, and on any device. Matters related to landlord disputes, employment disputes and disputes due to debt repayments can be handled effectively by this bench. The bench offers an array of features and tools that not only makes dispute resolution easier but also guarantees a quality outcome.

Individuals can also opt for their choice of language, location and time for case proceedings. Just submit your Arbitration agreement, appoint a neutral, and let us take care of the rest. The Jupitice Online Case Management System also enables you to draft and file a statement of claim, statement of defence, rejoinder, replication, etc. You can also file/draft any case-related document with the help of pre-designed templates on Jupitice.

The Small Claim Bench is designed to improve the efficiency of arbitral proceedings and assist the parties' rights to due process and fair treatment.

What is the Legal Sanctity of Online ADR?

Arbitration Award & Conciliation Settlement = Court Decree

In India, the following provisions of Statutes recognise and make the ADR mechanism legal.

The ADR Mechanisms have been recognised and accepted by the courts. The Courts have now been encouraging the use of ADR in cases where compromise is possible. The effect of an Arbitration Award is similar to a decision by a Court. It has the same effect as a decree and is final, binding and non-challengeable. Similarly, the settlement agreements reached through the processes of Conciliation or Mediation are deemed to be decrees and are binding.

In India, Online Arbitration awards, Online Conciliation awards, etc. are legally recognizable and valid if the Arbitration Agreement, Conciliation Agreement etc. is compliant with Sections 4 & 5, other applicable provisions contained in Section 10-A and Sections 11 - 15 of the Information Act 2008, read with Sections 65-A and 65-B of the Indian Evidence Act 1872 and Provisions of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, read with various Supreme Court Judgments. These have the same effect of Traditional Arbitral Awards, Conciliation Settlements etc. These Online Awards and Settlements are binding and final.
