498a Settlement

Sectin 498-A case is non-compoundable offence (except in A.P.) and hence after reaching an agreement with the wife, prepare a signed agreement and file the signed agreement with a petition before High Court under Section 482 cr.p.c. for quashing Section 498-A FIR and criminal proceedings of the trial court.  The High Court after ascertaining the contents of petition quash the Section 498-A FIR and criminal proceedings.  In Hjigh Court you can present your self as party in person or otherwise you have to engage an advocate.  The volunteers cannot help you out by appearing themselves in the court, because they are not entitled to appear. 

There is no short cut and this is the procedure, which you have to follow if take the assistance of advocate or any voluntary organisation.
