Dear Sir,

Can we speak to police that even-though a complaint is lodged U/S 498A that I am innocent and you should send us a notice under section 41A and as the punishment is up to 3 (Three) years so you cant arrest me and my familly.

Please throw some light on it

Thanking you in anticaption

Bail Amount return?

My client got acquitted in a criminal case. His bail amount was Rs.45000. Now how to retrieve this amount back? Will the court give the money back by cheque or cash? Will the payment will be in my Client's name?

material witness means.

311. Power to summon material witness, or examine person present.

Any court may, at any stage of any inquiry, trial or other proceeding under this Code, summon any person its a witness, or examine any person in attendance, though not summoned as a witness, or recall and re-examine any person already examined; and the court shall summon and examine or recall and re-examine any such person if his evidence appears to it to be essential to the just decision of the case.

Question: can we say that this section is only applicable to the criminal cases only because the [[[[under this Code]]]]]] is given.

Also we all know that we have to submitted the list of the witness that we have which will be chief examine or cross examine by the Prosecutor. But as we have not add the name under the list of any witness & we want to summons him as the witness at a later stage than can we go through section 311 of the crpc or any other section we have to file a application. I think yes because the words [[[[[[summon any person it’s a witness]]]]]]].

Also want do u mean by material witness.

In an accident case under Sec.279/304-A is settled by paying compensation to the victim's family and after completion of all due formalities the Court pronounce the judgement, in that case whether the case can victim's family side may again re-open the case by submitting any kind of plea or it is permanently settled once for all and no appeal lies in any court in India. Your detailed view is requested. Thanks
