Dear Sir / Madam,

1. A case cannot be filed in two separate Courts at the same time.

2. The Supreme Court will never intervene till such time as the High Court decides and disposes your petition. You should follow up your case at the Jabalpur High Court pleading early hearing and judgement.

By rule, a case in any High Court must be heard and disposed off within three months fromt the date of lodgement. A case in the Supreme Court has to be heard and disposed within six months from the date it is lodged.

Regards,
