Summary: shown. The Collector also has the power to withdraw or transfer cases pending before the Amin or Inspecting Officer. Appeals from the Amin's decisions can be made to the Collector or Inspecting Officer, and further appeals lie to the High Court in certain cases. Every appeal must be stamped and filed within a specified time limit. Additionally, representation in court is usually done by island mukhtyars, and no pleader is allowed without special permission. The system of administration on the Malabar islands has evolved over time, with islanders now being appointed as Amins and gumasthans, handling jurisdiction in petty cases, while more serious matters are under the purview of the Collector. The process of appeals and revisions ensure fair justice delivery on the islands.
