Section 309 & sec 257 crpc as first app after 7 months

Dear Legal Experts,
I seek guidance on the following procedural matter:
Case Background:
• Offences: Section 420 IPC (Cheating) and Section 406 IPC (Criminal Breach of Trust)
• Stage: FIR Done, Evidence gathered by Police, Chargesheet filed and CC (Criminal Case) number has been generated in the court
• Issue: First appearance date given after approximately 7 Months from CC number generation
Scenario:
• Wife sourced Bank Statement unofficially, Later modified it and submitted along with Petition of DV Case (Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005) with an interim Maintenance Ordered (But yet to be Paid) in a different Family court
My Queries:
1. Can Section 309 CrPC or 257 be invoked at this stage to request expedited hearing or to address the delay in first appearance of 7 Months from Now ?
2. Is Section 257 CrPC (Compound offences) applicable after CC number generation? Can compounding still be pursued at this stage for these offences?
3. What remedies are available to address the 7-month delay before the first appearance date? Does this delay violate the principle of speedy trial?
4. Procedural clarification needed: Once a CC number is assigned, what is the typical timeline and procedure? At what stage do Section 309 and Section 257 typically come into play?
5. I m suspecting that since Police already sent the Notice of Appearance (at the Bank Branch) to the Accused i.e. Bank Employee, there are fair chances that Bank employee will change the job to another Bank and since there is no Home address available, where the Summons will get issued on or after 7 Months ?
Kindly suggest,
Regards,
Sathya

Cancellation of registered deeds.

Respected Sir / Madam,
A victim found after 13 years of a registered gift deed and a registered sale deed performed, were done with some false statement of relationships. The victim did not know of the registered deeds for last 13 years. After knowing the fact the victim collected the copies of the registered deeds online. After that the false statements of relationships are found. Can now those registered deeds be challenged in court to cancel ?
If possible, please let me know the process.
Thanking you.
Jayanta.

Neighbour created his own reserved parking on the road.

The neighbor who stays in Vizag,Andhra Pradesh, deliberately parks his two-wheeler on the 20-foot internal colony road in front of his house in Hyderabad, often using his old vehicle or directing tenants/associates to occupy the space, ensuring a reserved spot for his four-wheeler when he visits from Vizag , while my house , with only a 5-foot frontage, lacks adequate space for parking even a two-wheeler. Any legal remedy here please

Quashing a case

I am facing a case under Section 306 IPC, arising purely family dispute.
All persons involved are blood-related members of the same family — Mother, Fathe, Brother, and Sister.
Committed Sucide - Father
Accused - Mother and Brother
Complainant - Sister

History:
1. FIR 2021
2. Chargesheet 2022
3. No witness Examine till now.

Current position:
Mutual settlement has already been reached between the Family.
The complainant (my sister) is fully ready to close the case and cooperate in quashing of the FIR/charge-sheet.
The trial in the lower court is moving very slowly and inefficiently, with no effective progress.

Query:
👉 Considering these facts, is filing a quashing petition before the High Court under Section 482 CrPC best legal option to finally close this case?
Or what is the Best Option?
