Time limit to claim compensation



My mother was sent to jail in 2002 for abusing a man who is sc/st. The case went on for a year and it got a judgement in 2003 where my mother was found innocent. We did not know at that time that we could  file and claim  penalty/ compensation/damages from the person who had put false criminal case against my mother. Our lawyer itself did not give us this information about claiming hence we did not know.Is there a way where we can file a suit to punish that man now or is the time limit over??

Your case is called as malicious prosecution., it's limitation is one year from the date of judgment.. therefore your case is barred by limitation.
