Issue of NBW in NI 138 cases.

I am preparing a writ petition to be presented shortly before SC regarding gray areas of NI 138 prosecution.

1) While on one hand the SC in Mehtre case dt 2.12.10 , has given direction that bail is right and jail is exception even in murder case ; but in NI 138 cases which is financial dispute given criminal procedure , the accused are being harrassed with NBW for unreasonable grounds.

2) In the act and procedure there is no provision that the accused can contest the illegality of case before trial.

So the provisions conflict with fundamental rights.

I request all concerned to assist me with their inputs and follow up action.

Cant we stop another false 498a case

Wife put up Four 498a cases in previous years & compromised at PS itself & hence no case closure documents done.

Now this year too booked 498a on pretext of her word to be reigning over husband and planning to compromise once again.

She is ready to mention in case closure paper in terms & conditions that she would not approach court/police in future.

Question
1) Will this writing binds her legally in future, Yes or No
2) ortherwise what tomorrow she can again put a fresh case allegating that husband is once again harassing? Will again 6th 498a can be booked in another PS? Is this possible?

498A Chargesheet-Quash

I had filed a 498A Quash case in HC- Allahabad which was referred to mediation granting us Stay arrest. Now the mediation dates were attended by us but the other party did not attend now the case will be sent back to HC.

timebeing the chargesheet has been filed at CO office but have not yet reached the court so we havent received the summons to apper before the trial court.

1. what should be our next step to ensure that our bail is in place.
2. On the date when we are asked to appear before the trial court we will be without bail as arrest stay is valid for police so what is the procedure for bail- when we appear before the trial court will we be granted bail or are there any chances of arrest. I being the main accused had secured bail in June when the case was filed.
3. If there are any chances of arrest shall we go for Chargesheet Quash to HC again in that case would we need to withdraw the FIR quash case.
4. As a general opinion what is your opinion on granting of bail from trial court in 498/406/502 charges to family members ----no 323 charges.
4. Even If I go to HC the case wont be quashed so bail by filing Chargesheet Quash would also be temporary and will provide a temporary relief ( dont know how much time can HC take but dont feel more than a year).

Please suggest next steps. If the other side challenges grant of our bail at the time of appearence in trial court can that be rejected.

Please advise as I am about to get the summons shortly so need to be ready for the next steps....as my parents are old and to avoid risk I can go for Chargesheet Quash that can atleast provide temporary relief.

Factual background is that complainant was though cross examined previously when he appeared as witness in support of his case,, but previous Ld.
