Expecting 498a

(Querist) 14 August 2014 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Experts,

Some details
Marriage happened 1 year before
bride and groom are more than 31 yrs old.
Marriage happened in groom's city which is in different state from that of bride's city.


I am expecting 498a from my wife. They are reasoning that my family should go to jail as we are village people and "gawar" and that their intention is not to get money but to show us that we are wrong and they are are right.

Well, if they want to lodge a case, nobody can stop them. So i am not arguing on the matter. I know that with evidences, I will be able to support my case on merits in the purview of law.

I have old age parents ( more than 65 yrs old with ailments ), a young brother who is 2 yrs in his job, my sister is pregnant and she is with me for her delivery. I also have decent to less money.

I assume, they will lodge case in their city where they have high contacts with goons, police and lawmakers itself.

How should I deal with this situation? I have following questions

1. Once they report to police in their jurisdiction for whatsoever reason, do I and named people have to rush to that police station for mediation.

2. Since states are different, and i am expecting 498a, do i have to get AB from that jurisdiction high court only.

3. I do not want my parents to ever attend court and police station, what can i do? which section i can impose.

4. If I want to move the case to supreme court directory, what I can do and can it be done.

5. In worst case if i have to visit my spouse place for AB and Court dates, how can i safegaurd myself through law and how can i make sure the people are not influenced.

6. If i want to be "party in person" and i get jailed, can i still fight my case and can i get any kind of protection from law.

7. If I want to be "Party in Person", can i get a reference guide which can help me understand the court procedures and case procedures.

Thank you very much

int the vent 498A case is filed you better engage a local lawyer and obtain AB from session court wherein case is filed .

with recent SC ruling you wont be arrested unless strong case on merits is made out by your wife against you and your parents . you have to fight case on merits before trial court only
