ADJ Shrivastava said that such negotiable cases would be placed in the Lok Adalat where there was a possibility of settlement between the parties. A division Bench of the Lok Adalat would arbitrate the cases so that settlement could be reached between the parties after mutual agreement.
In the Lok Adalat, both money and time were saved when a case was settled on the basis of agreement, the ADJ added.
