If your sister is an aggrieved person why does she wait for summer / winter vacation to file a fresh complaint under the provisions of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 ?

During the vacation period court registry do not entertain / accept any fresh case for intervention untill there is some exceptional urgency involving immediate danger to life / property.

It would be expedient to consult a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts / documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding for any genuine legal issue / problem/dispute.
