Legal Question in Family Law in India

Re: clarification 498a

there is no time limit for filing dowry case. you can take anticiaptory bail

Re: clarification 498a

There is no time limit for filing a criminal complaint u/s 498A of IPC. Your wife is entitled to make a complaint even now. The only method to escape this kind of a problem is : OUT OF COURT SETTLEMENT AND COMPROMISE THE ENTIRE DISPUTE.

It may be better to avoid litigation and police action.

Re: clarification 498a

in case your divorce case is already pending and during pendency of the same she is also filing a 498a, procuring the anticipatory bail would not be a problem but u need to move the application the moment you receive your first summons from women cell.

Re: clarification 498a

She cannot file 498A second time as if she files you can show the present court's judgement if favourable to you and get the case quashed/dismiss.

Re: clarification 498a

Hello.

First advise avoid litigation and go for an out of court settlement and compromise with the dispute.

Secondly, your file can file a complaint as there is no time limit to file a criminal complaint u/s. 498A of IPC.
