Wife has filed a complaint against her husband and in-laws u/s 12 of the DV Act 2005 before the Protection officer. protection officer called for the respondents for counseling and ultimately no fruitful result come up. Husband has filed application for Restoration of conjugal right. Now after that wife has filed another complaint u/s 12 of the DV Act 2005 with different cause of action before the Judicial magistrate of first class of competent court. Can wife file her complaint against her husband and in-laws u/s 12 of the DV Act 2005 at first before the Protection officer and at later stage with different cause of action to the Judicial Magistrate of competent jurisdiction?

Whether Protection Officer has referred the case to MM/ JMIC or not ?
What is the other/different cause of action which was not mentioned in initial complaint ?
What is your locus standie to the query ?
Nothing can be opined and obliged under given "limited" information.
Consult a local prudent lawyer with facts of the case, if it is true/ not a moot-court question.
