Dear Friend,
I am in urgent need of your help for the following questions.
1. How much time it needs to get a certified copy of FIR from the court for a lawyer? Or accused can also get a certified copy of FIR from the police?
2. How do I know that when charge sheet is going to get filed? In general, how much time it takes to file the charge sheet?
3. How to get a copy of charge sheet? When can I expect to get the same? Does the lawyer or accused can get a copy of the same from either police or the court?
4. How much time police takes in general to send the charge sheet to the court? Will lawyer or accused be informed whether charge sheet is sent to the court by the police?
5. Will it be possible to collect a copy of charge sheet from the court by the lawyer or accused before trial date?
6. When court will send summon to the accused mentioned in the charge sheet? How this date gets finalized? Does lawyer has influence on fixing the date or court has it’s own process to fixing this date?
7. What is your opinion about the lawyer who is saying that charge sheet will be available after 5 months? Should we think to change the lawyer?
I would be greatly obliged if you kindly help me in this regard.
Thanks a lot.
