In the same court where 498A proceedings have been filed against you.

Re: Victim of 498A

An accused may approach the High Court for quashing of FIR if it can be established that :

(a) after all the allegations in the FIR to be true on the face of it, no offence is made or that the ingredients of the offences alleged are not establihsed:

OR

(b) the FIR is an abuse of the process of law and has been registered ONLY to wreek vengeance;

OR

(c) the registeration of FIR was barred in law on account of reasons to be disclosed by the parties.

If the parties arrive at a compromise, that can also be a good ground to seek quashing of FIR though the offences are not compoundable.
