This query is : Resolved
After 12yrs of marriage my wife filed a 498 case against me and my family in April 2012. We were staying separately without any contact from May 2011 and now in October 2013 she again filed a separate domestic violence case against me and my family. It was the same complain as she did in April 2012. Is there any time period restriction to file a domestic violence case after filing 498a ?

No , there is no time resuscitation. Domestic violence which included various kinds of abuses is a continuing wrong and hence no time limit is there.

Dear Author!
Domestic violence is like sea tides and can occur every zero or full moon hence legislatures have not provided limitation.
