Dear Sir,
Please advice me on the below scenario.
Fake marital cases were filed by wife against me and my family.
From the last 1 year compromise talks were happening and now it has been finalised.
My query is what is the procedure to withdraw the 498a with mutual consent.
What I have heard from the sources is that both the parties has to be present in front of the Judge to quash this.
My advocate says this is not needed to quash this.
Can it be quashed only on high court or it can be quashed in the Judicial I class magistrate where this was filed.
Who has to do the quashing?
Can my wife/ her advocate do this, if I give them an affidavit? or
Me/ my advocate has to do this by taking an affidavit from her.
Status of 498a is as follows: I believe chargesheet has been submitted to the court by police (I am not sure. I believe so since almost an year has passed), no summons has come from court till now.
Also please let me know the cost involved a mutual consent quashing of 498a.
Thanks in advance for your earliest reply.
thanks
Nishantha mutual consent
