For setting aside the conviction order made by a court you need to make an application to that particular court for the same. In this application you may mention the fact that you have settled out your differences with your wife.

Re: Approaching Highcourt for revoking Conviction

firstly, you will have to file an appeal against conviction in the higher court and then seek suspension of sentence on the grounds mentioned by you. after seeking the suspension of sentence, you can file an application for discharge in the sessions court itself and in case the sessions court refuse to discharge you, you may file a petition in the high court and seek discharge.
