Respected lawyers,
Can you guide an important thing regarding 498a. Suppose a girl gives a complaint to police against her husband and in laws. That complaint was closed on merits with no registration of FIR. Girl agrieved of decision then files criminal complaint in district court in which judge has not take any cognisance yet. Can she also simultaneously ask for relief in form of FIR or Enquiry from another officer by writ petition u/s 482. I mean if she already have filed criminal complaint case in lower court and simultaneously filed writ in high court for relief to file fir or enquiry from other officer. If Not? then can Husband's reply in higher court suggesting that girl has already filed case in lower court be sufficient to dismiss their writ petition.
With regards
