If there is a compromise settlement between both parties and the quash petition is filled along with copy of the settlement and affidavit to that effect, the court notice is sent to the wife/complainant in S 498A FIR to appear and defend the petition.
If she doesn't appear being duly served with notice of the High Court, the Court in such cases being satisfied of compromise/settlement allows the quashing petition.

If the settlement took place privately between parties then court will seek the Complainant's presence.
