This query is : Resolved
My daughter got married in December 2021 and gave birth to a daughter in October 2022. Just a month before the delivery, the inlaws got all her jewellary etc. in their custody and deliberately tortured her mentally and rang us up to take her home.
Her husband even confiscated her cell phone (later released), checked all the messages and forebade her from keeping in touch from people he does'nt like.
He however visited the hospital during delivery and bore part of the expenses as they will be reimbursed by his office.
When my daughter requested him to bring alteast one set of jewellery to be worn on child's function to be held at our hose and on diwali, he just made some excuses and did not do so.When we wanted to go to their place to offer sweets etc on Diwali, they just refused and father in law did not even respond to my Diwali wishes on whatsapp. Husband has also left our family whatsapp group
Now my querry is that upto what time we can wait safely before initiating any legal action without compromising our right to all the jewellery and compensation, in case matters go from bad to worse, as we still want to give some more chance time for the relationship to heal and recover.

You are prepared to give some time for the relationship, and the well-wishers of both families amicably settle the issues if any, and even then the negotiations are not fruitless you can go for legal action by consulting a local lawyer.

My concern is about being too late for taking recourse to legal remedies, lest the case becomes timebarred.

No time limit is fixed to take recourse of legal remedies but it seems that your dispute may be resolved with the help/intervention of ralatives and closed friends so try to settle the dispute.

There is no time limit to initiate legal action in such circumstances.

How can I prove as to how much jewellery I gave to my daughter, which is currently in possession of her in laws?
