One of thing i dont understand and agree with my lawyers his institence on producing all original evidence even before amendement is filed by wife and her cross examinatin.

technically do i have to submit original recording,greeting card signed by wife to family court before wife proudcing her eveidence.

I want to avoid submitting memory card with recording since I have greter use of it in Criminal court under 498a

please suggest what i should do.

the fundamental principal of civil procedure is that all the originals should be filed with the pleadings at the earliest oppurtunity. but in your case you can withhold the filing of the originals uptill the amendment of wife's petition is allowed and take the liberty to file originals with the new ws you would filed against amended petition when the amendment is allowed. in the mean time file a reply to the amendment appln. by wife. in the 498A case you can always file the certified copy. it will serves the same purpose as original. just mention the court the original is withe the family court.
