Legal Question in Family Law in India

we have given dowry to our daughter's father-in-law and gold also in marriage.

for that no proof except my friend witness.(In DVC already given in court)

There is no property on my son-in-law name. One house is on father-in-law name.

We booked 498A on them for dowry harrasment. The case is not yet come for

trial. Only DVC is in trial.

If we go for divorce can court order my daughter's father-in-law for return of

dowry amount and gold?

If they argue no property of son-law named. Will they jailed?

Facing so much problem sir.

You can get dowry and gold from the father-inlaw but cannot claim maintenance etc from father-inlaw. This is your son-inlaws prerogative to maintain your daughter. No they will not be jailed for the mere fact that there son does'nt own any property.
