Justice R Regupathi (Chennai HC) Ends The Abuse Of 498A

Excerpts And Judgments To Fight Domestic Violence Act Cases

Here are a few citations that will allow you to win DV Act cases. Before you get into that, read the FAQ compiled by the mother of the flawed DV Act, Indira Jaising and her crooked cohorts of the Lawyers Collective:

Lawyers Collective FAQ On PWDVA 2007

The DV Act is touted as a civil law and a second chance by the likes of Indira Jaising. But the fine print says that the proceedings are to be conducted as in criminal cases. In effect, like all the other things touted by these Feminazis, this is a pernicious law designed to bypass the higher requirements of proof needed for criminal cases like 498A. It is designed to be a wolf in a sheeps clothing. If you dont adhere to the orders of a magistrate who is required to pass protection orders for immediate relief, this civil case turns into a criminal case for contempt and then you are really screwed. What makes this law so pernicious is that unlike 498A, which hinges on the sheer terror unleashed by corrupt Indian Police officers to cow the victims, this case can deprive you of the sanctuary offered by your home and can have the entire family tossed out on the street. I will compile all the judgment related to the DV act here. If anyone has new judgments, please leave a comment or paste the judgment below in the comments section.

Please start by reading this judgment of Justice Dhingra given below. He interprets Batra Vs Batra and also explains the meaning and rights of shared household and matrimonial home: Justice Dhingra Explains The Meaning Of Shared Household If you face the false and fabricated Domestic Violence act, you must know the following: Crl.P 3714 of 2007 delivered by the Honble High Court of Andhra Pradesh where in it was held It is a fundamental principle of law that any penal provision has no retrospective operation but only prospective. There is no allegation either in the report or in the statement or in the complaint on the 1st Respondent with regards to the acts of domestic violence that took place on or after 26-102006.Therefore continuation of proceedings against the petitioners is nothing but abuse of process of court. I finally got my hands on this judgment thanks to Aejaz_legal, a reader who posted this judgment:

AP HC DV NOT RETROSPECTIVE 3714/2007

To understand this principle, read this article:

http://cs.anu.edu.au/~James.Popple/publications/articles/retroactive/

Delhi Court: DV Act Has No Retrospective Effect Ashma Vs Afsar CC No.311/8- Oct 2008 Justice Dhingra Explains The Meaning Of Shared Household Defined In The DV Act

In ( 2008 ) DMC 1, delivered by the Honble Madhya Pradesh High Court held that Complaint for this offence can only be filed against adult male person and further held in 3( C ) that as provided by sec 2(q)of the act, such application u/s 12 of the act cant be filed against petitioners who are ladies .

Here is the judgment: http://ipc498a.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/mp-hc-women-cant-be-respondents-in-dv-act-2007.pdf Here is another judgment from the Chennai HC stating the same:

2007(2) ALT (Crl.) 504(A.P) delivered by the Honble High Court of Andhra Pradesh where in it was held as there is no claim made against the other respondents, continuing process against them is a clear abuse of law. I am missing the judgment:

I (2007) DMC 1 (SC) = 2007(3) ALT (Crl.) 1(SC) delivered by the Honble Supreme Court of India where in it was heldclaim for alternative accommodation can only be made against the husband but not to the In-laws. Here is the judgment: SC judgment, Batra Vs Batra, 2007.

Shaleen Kabra DV Act Judgment:

You can read about this story here:A Delhi

additional sessions court has ruled that allegations of domestic violence need to be proved and victims need to face cross-examination and provide evidence in support of their charges to be liable for relief. This ruling was upheld by the Delhi High Court. This is marked in red as this blows a hole in the DV Act. The judgments are given below: PMO Official Accused Of Domestic Violence By Wife

Swarup Sarkars DV Act judgment: Here is some background information from the TOI which sheds some light on the Swarup Sarkar story: Man complains, wife summoned over abortion

Here is the very interesting judgment: Swarup Sarkar DV Act Judgment 2007

Sonia Vs Vinod: A CITY court has dismissed a petition of a woman against her family members on finding she was harassing them, misusing the Domestic Violence Act in the process. Dismissing the complaint, Metropolitan Magistrate Shahabuddin said, I am prima facie of the considered opinion that the complainant is not cooperating with her in-laws. She prima facie appears to be harassing them on trivial matters. Complainant Sonia had

approached the court in August, alleging her husband Vinod and his mother and sisters used to physically harass her for bringing insufficient dowry The court, however, declined to allow her complaint, asking a number of relief s, including right to residence. The woman failed to satisfy this court that her husband or any of his other family members had really committed any domestic violence against her.

IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT : HYDERABAD ( THURSDAY 2nd DAY OF AUGUST, 2007 ) PRESENT THE HONBLE SRI JUSTICE K.C. BHANU CRL. P. NO : 3714 of 2007 BETWEEN : 1. U.U. Thimmanna, Slo U. U. Ayyanna 2. U.U. Sankaramma, W/o U. U. Thimmanna 3. U.U. Sreenivasulu, Slo U. U. Thimmanna 4. U.U. Paramesh, Slo U. U. Thimmanna 5. U.U.Ramesh, Slo U. U. Thimmanna .. PETITIONERS AND 1. Smt. U.U. Sandhya, Dlo U.M. Venkateswarlu 2. The State of Andhra Pradesh, rep. by its Public Prosecutor, High Court of A.P., at Hyderabad. .. RESPONDENTS Petition under Section 482 of the Cr1.P.C praying that in the circumstances stated in the quash proceedings filed therewith, the High Court will be pleased to quash the proceedings in D.V.C.No. 1 of 2007 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Yemmiganur, Kurnool District. The Petition

coming on for hearing, upon perusing the Petition and the quash proceedings filed in support thereof and upon hearing the arguments of Sri. C.PRAVEEN KUMAR, Advocate for the Petitioner and of Smt. P. Rajeswari, Advocate for the Respondent No.1 and of the Public Prosecutor, on behalf of State. The Court made the following : ORDER THE HONt BLE SRI JUSTICE K . C . BEANU CRIMINAL PETITION N0.3714 OF 2007. ORDER This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioners under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash the proceedings in DVC No.1 of 2007 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Yemrniganur, Kurnool District. Heard both the counsels. Admittedly, husband of the complainant died on 14-06-2004 and since then the de facto complainant is not residing with the petitioners. The shared household is defined under Section 2 (s) of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (for short the Act), which reads as follows: shared household means a household where the person aggrieved lives or at any stage has lived in a domestic relationship either singly or along with the respondent and includes such a household whether owned or tenanted either jointly by the aggrieved person and the respondent or owned or tenanted by either of them in respect of which either the aggrieved person or the respondent or both jointly or singly have any right, title, interest or equity and includes such a household which may belong to the joint family of which the respondent is a member, irrespective of whether the respondent or the aggrieved person has any right, title or interest in the shared household. Domestic relationship is defined under Section 2 ( E ) of the Act, which reads as follows: domestic relationship means a relationship between two persons who live or have, at any point of time, lived together in a shared , household, when they are related by consanguinity, marriage, or through a relationship in the nature of marriage, adoption or are family members living together a3 a joint family. On the face of the allegations in the complaint, the de facto complainant is not residing with the petitioners. She is residing in House No.2361, Near M.G. Petrol, Yemmiganur, whereas petitioners 1

and 2 have been residing in House No. 3/31, Uppara street, Yemmiganur, 3 rd petitioner is residing in Mahaboobnagar, 4th petitioner is residing at H.No.S/2267,Laxmipeta, Yemmiganur and 5th petitioner is residing at: H. N o: 3/31, tippata Street, Yemmiganur. Admittedly, the de facto complainant filed a suit in O.S. No.111 of 2005, which is pending, She also filed a case in C.C.No.94 of 2005 under Section 498-A IPC, which is pending trial before the Judl. Magistrate of 1st Class, Yemmiganur. The domestic incident report does not disclose any of the acts of violence that were call reported by the cornplainant after 26-10-2006. There is no dispute that the Act came into effect when the Central Government appoints 26-10-2006 as the date on which the Act was came into force. For acts of violence, certain penal provisions are incorporated. Therefore, It is a fundamental principle of law that any penal provision has no retrospective operation but only prospective. There is no allegation either in the report or in the statement or in the complaint on the 1st Respondent with regards to the acts of domestic violence that took place on or after 26-102006.Therefore continuation of proceedings against the petitioners is nothing but abuse of process of court. Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is allowed quashing the proceedings in DVC No.1 of 2007 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of I Class, Yemrniganur, Kurnool District.

DR D C VOHRAFebruary 1, 2009 at 5:00 pm

Your website is rendering a yeoman service to the aggirved husbands who have become victims of the draconian law of Domestic Violance against women unheard of anywhere in the world because the kind of violance visulaised can occur for both the wives and the husbands. Which is why the Mother of Parliaments in the the United Kingdom

enaced a law regarding BRITISH MATRIMONIAL HOMES ACT 1967; there should have been such law in India The DV Act is a one-sided law and is an act of hostile disrimination against half of the married couples in the country. But the self-styled pro-women pressure and interest groups are regarding the DV Act as revolutionary for reasons best known to them The DV Act is a negation of democracy because it is not always the husbands who victimise their wives; even wives can indulge into violance against husbands. The DV Act has become a legislation which permits commercial exploitation by unscrupoulus wives of their husbands and in-laws with no interest in happy matrimony and raising of children within the the confines of family life No wonder 90% of the cases filed by the wives against their husbands are being thrown out by the Courts. I solute to the judicial system which is still holding the high ideals of India and its Constitution guaranteeing the fundamental rights of equality before law and dignified life and liberty to the citizens, irrepective of case, creed ans gender.

Hello Brother,

Neeraj AggarwalFebruary 10, 2009 at 11:41 am

You missed an important judgment of Delhi High Court which upheld the decisions of both the court of MM and ASJ. The women in this case had put serious allegations against her husbands character and on the basisi of which she was successful in securing civil releifs under DV Act. But she was not coming for her cross examination. MM ruled that after securing immediate civil releifs unde the DV act, woman has to prove the alleged domestic violence. But her averment was that for securing a relief, sole testimony of the woman is sufficient. Judge clarified that testimony means cross-examination (no need of proffs and witnesses although). The word in the DV act is Testimony and should not be confused with the statement.

She appeald to the court of ASJ and then to Delhi High Court. Both the courts dismissed her respective appeals and upheld the decision of the court of MM. I am pasting here the judgment of ASJ first (i have it in PDF form) and then judgment of the Delhi High Court both. -: 1 :IN THE COURT OF SHRI V.K. BANSAL ADDL. SESSIONS JUDGE NEW DELHI IN RE: Criminal Revision No. 196/07 Shivani Kabra w/o Sh Shaleen Kabra r/o A-142. 3rd Floor Lajpat Nagar-I, New Delhi . Revisionist VERSUS 1. Shaleen Kabra (Husband) S/o Sh Ram Prasad 2. Ram Prasad (Father-in-law) 3. Smt Leelawati (Mother-in-law) W/o Sh Ram Prasad All r/o D-II/64 Pandara Road, New Delhi. 4. Lata Soni (sister-in-law) s/o Sh Gopi Wallabh Soni R/o Erera Colony, Bhopal (M.P)

5. The State (NCT of Delhi) Respondents. O R D E R The present revision petition has been preferred against the order dated 09.10.2007 whereby the court has directed both the parties including the revisionist herein to file affidavit in evidence and put the case for cross examination for 13.11.2007. 2. Notice of the revision was given to the respondents. Trial court record was requisitioned. 3. The facts in brief are that the revisionist herein filed an application under the Protection of Woman From Domestic Violence Act, 2005. On that application notice to respondent was given. Interim order was passed on 08.06.2007 and thereafter the present order to lead evidence and come for cross examination was passed. 4. Ld counsel for the revisionist submitted that in the present case there is no procedure prescribed under the Act that the ld Trial court shall record the evidence and also conduct the cross examination. Ld counsel submitted that the Act was enacted to provide a remedy in Civil Law for Protection of Woman victim of Domestic Violence and to prevent the occurrence of Domestic Violence in the Society. The Law also provides that the application is to be decided within he period of 60 days from the date of first hearing. Ld counsel submitted that in case the matter is fixed for evidence then it cannot be decided within the mandatory period of 60 days. Even otherwise, in the present case the respondent in reply to the application of the revisionist has not denied the infliction of injuries on the body of the revisionist and he has categorically refused the entry of the revisionist in the house. As the

respondents is not disputing the infliction of injuries, therefore, there is no need to ask for the parties to lead evidence and also come forward for cross examination. Ld counsel submitted that the Ld Trial court has erred in Law as well as the facts of the case for asking the parties to lead evidence and to come for cross examination. The order is not sustainable as now the only relief which remains to be adjudicated is the relief of maintenance, custody of Istri Dhan and other house hold goods. In that respect affidavits of both the parties are already on record and the matter may be adjudicated on the basis of the same. There is no need to lead evidence on these points. It is prayed that keeping in view all these facts the order be set aside and the ld Trial court be directed to decide the matter on the basis of the affidavits already available on the file. 5. Ld counsel for the respondents submitted that for reaching to just conclusion in the case it is necessary that the court shall take evidence. In the present case the revisionist has filed her own affidavit. Respondent has also filed his own affidavit. To ascertain the veracity of the assertain made in the affidavits and the truthfulness of the parties it is necessary that they be put to the test of cross examination and the Ld Trial court has rightly taken the decision and asked the parties to lead evidence and come for cross examination. It is prayed that there is no illegality in the order and the revision be dismissed. 6. After hearing the arguments and going through the record, I am of the opinion that it is the duty and responsibility of every court to adjudicate the matter after taking evidence and according fare opportunity to both the

parties to plead their own case. In the present case the revisionist moved an application under Protection of Woman from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 leveling allegations against the respondent. Respondent had taken his own plea in this regard and the interim order had already been passed on the basis of pleadings. Now to come to the just conclusion about the allegations and counter allegations it is necessary that the parties be given opportunity to lead their evidence and also to come in the witness box and face the cross examination. In my opinion, the ld Trial court by asking the parties to appear for cross examination had only taken a step for bringing on record the truth and to reach to the just conclusion, therefore, I do not find any merit in the revision, same is dismissed. Trial court record along with the copy of this order be sent back. File of revision petition be consigned to record room. Announced in open court ( V.K. BANSAL ) Dated: 07.12.2007 ADDL. SESSIONS JUDGE NEW DELHI SHIVANI KABRA Vs. STATE & ORS Advocate (s) : PRAMOD GUPTA, Date of Disposal : Wednesday, January 30, 2008 Category : CRIMINAL REVISIONS AND BAIL APPLICATIONS

IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI 30.01.2008 Present: Mr.Pramod Gupta, Advocate for the Petitioner. Crl.M.C.323/2008 and Crl. M.A.1186/2008 The petitioner/wife was married to respondent no.2/husband in accordance with Hindu rites on 14.02.1994. It is the allegation of the petitioner that the parents of respondent no.2/husband were demanding dowry from the beginning and the same was given by the parents of the petitioner/wife. There are allegations of cruelty made against the respondent no.2/husband and his family members being respondent nos. 3 to 5. The petitioner filed an application under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (the said Act for short) on 24.04.2007 claiming relief under different provisions of the said Act including Sections 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 of the said Act. The learned MM passed an order on 08.06.2007 as regards the relief claimed by the petitioner under Sections 17 and 19 of the said Act in respect of the residence and shared household and directed the respondent no.2/husband to pay to the petitioner/wife a sum of Rs. 10,000/- per month towards expenses for her accommodation and amenities. The relief claimed in respect of the custody of the children was settled by the learned Addl.Sessions Judge during the course of hearing of the revision petition. The grievance of the petitioner/wife is in respect of the remaining pending issues, the learned MM passed an order dated 09.10.2007 directing the parties to file their affidavits by way of evidence and posted the matter for cross examination of the petitioner /complainant (wife) on 13.11.2007. Hence, the present petition. A perusal of the Order dated 09.10.2007 of the learned MM shows that the respondent no.2/husband sought an opportunity to cross examine the petitioner/complainant(wife) and the learned MM was of the view that under the provisions Section 28 of the said Act, the Court has to follow the procedure laid down in the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (the said Code for short) and further the Court can lay down its own procedure for disposal of the application.

Considering the allegation levelled by the petitioner/complainant (wife), the learned MM was of the view that the respondents, respondent nos.2 to 5 herein, should be given an opportunity to cross examine the petitioner/complainant (wife) and they should further be entitled to lead evidence. The contentions advanced by learned counsel for the petitioner/wife against the said Order have been examined by the learned Addl. Sessions Judge in the impugned order dated 07.12.2007. In fact, the same submissions have been made today. It is the plea of the learned counsel for the petitioner that there is no procedure prescribed under the said Act for recording of evidence and to conduct cross examination. The further plea advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner, which was also raised before the Trial Courts, is that the only reliefs which remain to be adjudicated are in respect of maintenance, stridhan and other household goods for which affidavits have been filed by the parties. This plea was contested by the counsel for the respondent nos.2 to 5, being the husband of the petitioner and her in-laws, before the learned Addl.Sessions Judge on the ground that it was the case of an affidavit filed by one party against the affidavit of the other party and thus to ascertain the veracity of the averments made in the affidavits, the same should go through the test of cross examination. The learned Addl.Sessions Judge held that it is the duty of the court to make an endeavour to get to the truth of the matter and in view of the allegations and counter allegations it was necessary that the parties be given an opportunity to lead their evidence and also to enter the witness box and face the cross examination. ?28.Procedure (1) Save as otherwise provided in this Act, all proceedings under sections 12, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23 and offences under section 31 shall be governed by the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (2 of 1974). (2) Nothing in sub-section (1) shall prevent the court from laying down its own procedure for disposal of an application under section 12 or under sub-section (2) of section 23.?

A reading of the aforesaid clause shows that the proceedings are to be governed by the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, but this would not prevent the Court from laying down its own procedure for disposal of an application under Section 12 of the said Act. Thus, wide amplitude has been given to the Court taking into consideration the nature of the legislation, which is to protect the women. The statement of objects and reasons of the said Act shows that domestic violence is undoubtedly a human right issue and serious deterrent to development and thus to protect the rights under Articles 14, 15 and 21 of the Constitution of India, the law has been enacted. It certainly cannot be the plea of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the Court does not have the right to get to the bottom of the matter if the Trial Court, in its wisdom, in the given facts of the case where there are two affidavits of the opposite parties, finds that the cross examination of the deponents would assist the Court in coming to the right conclusion. Such a course of action can hardly be faulted. Not only has the Trial Court exercised this power, but the revision against the same has also been dismissed and this is the third round initiated by the petitioner. It is not a case of the Trial Court holding a detailed trial, as alleged by the petitioner/wife, but trying to find the veracity of the averments made in the affidavits of the two parties. I am thus of the considered view that there is no ground for this Court to exercise its inherent jurisdiction under Section 482 of the said Code. Dismissed. JANUARY 30, 2008 SANJAY KISHAN KAUL, J.

hey swarup.what do u want to tell? do u think that all 498as are false?? my mother has suffered a lot in hands of my father who is a dog and like a dog sleeps with as many woman as he can.she filed a 498a case.when the case was on witnessing stage, i contacted my father and convinced him for compromisehe agreed..my mom had to tell the court a lie that she had mistakenly filed the case just for the sake of compromise but the day my father got discharged, he threw me and my mother out of his house now tell me if u go through the whole story what will u tell? but if u go by thefinal order of the court,

my mother is a liar and has mistakenly filed 498a 498a is not always false, but is sometimes intentionally falsified for the sake of conjugal relationship.

A wife CAN file a DVA case if her articles and ornaments are retained in the house of the husband. But if she had never demanded for their return to her custody or If the husband did not refuse to return them then her case is gone. Leaving things at her husbands place and going away is different from the husband retaining them with him.

Dear all Pl go through the news item pasted below for obtaining information from Income Tax Deptt in dowry case where parents of the girl demand hefty compensation by saying thatthe had spent huge amount on I-T info covered under RTI Act .This is from the tribune chandigarh. Girja Shankar Kaura Tribune News Service New Delhi, January 12 In a ruling which is bound to have large ramifications on tax-payers, the Central Information Commission (CIC) has ruled that information on income tax is not invasion of privacy and was valid under the Right to Information (RTI) Act. The ruling was made by Information Commissioner Sailesh Gandhi on an application filed by a resident of Delhi, Rakesh Kumar Gupta, seeking all records available with the I-T Department, including assessment records of all levels with regard to Escorts Limited. The applicant had also sought information related to then Escorts chief Naresh Trehan. Gandhi ruled: The concept of privacy is a cultural notion related to social norms, and different societies would look at these differently. Therefore, referring to laws of other countries to define

privacy cannot be considered a valid exercise to constrain the citizens fundamental Right to Information in India. However, he ruled that as per Section 8 (1) (b) of the Act, there shall be no obligation to give any citizen, information that has been expressly forbidden to be published by any court of law or tribunal or the disclosure of which may constitute contempt of court. In a move that would also possibly curb tax evasion, he said disclosure of information would not lead to unwarranted invasion of the privacy of the individual. Gandhi observed, Parliament has not codified the right to privacy so far, hence, in balancing, the Right to Information of Citizens and the individuals Right to Privacy, the Citizens Right to Information would be given greater weightage. He agreed that the state had no right to invade the privacy of an individual, but pointed out that that there were some extraordinary situations where the state may be allowed to invade the privacy of a citizen. On arguments that revealing the information related to Naresh Trehan was personal, the CIC said: Various public authorities in performing their functions routinely ask for personal information from citizens and this is clearly a public activity. When a person applies for a job, or gives information about himself as an employee, or asks for a permission, licence or authorisation, all these are public activities. Also, when a citizen provides information in discharge of a statutory obligation, this too is a public activity. dowry.

I am also one of the victim of DV Act, i just want to know that Appeal can be made to Sessions Court within 30 days from the order of concerned Magistrate, but does this time frame includes the time of getting certified copy of the order.

Like, MM , New Delhi had passed an impunged order on 20th July 2009 and we had not received the certifiedc opy of the order on the same day, so my lawyer had applied for the copy on 22nd July 2009 and we got the copy on 03rd August 2009 and on 01st September 2009 i had made an appeal in the Honble court of ASJ, Patiala House against this impunged order. Is this is legally correct, because on 25th Jan. 2010 I had won the case in the honble court of ASJ, New Delhi but on 26th Feb. 2010 my wife had made the appeal against the same in Honble High court, Delhi. She had challenged the judgement made by ASJ and she had written in her appeal that I (her husband) had not filed the appeal in the respective time frame. Please provide your inputs Thanks a lot Rishi

Dear sir, Pb Haryana High Court says no case can be registered against woman relatives of the husband. Pl read the following:Abuse of domestic violence Act brought to HC notice Tribune News Service Chandigarh, April 1 Implemented in 2006 for the protection of the fairer sex, the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act has apparently turned unfair for women. In a clear-cut departure from the intended purpose of safeguarding the interest of women in general and housewives in particular, the provisions of the Act are being on the face of it misused to proceed against women. In one such case, a woman lodged a complaint against four of her women relatives, even though the law reportedly prohibits initiation of proceedings against the same gender.

Bringing the alleged violation of the norms to the Punjab and Haryana High Courts notice, Manjit Kaur of Sangrur and three others urged the Bench to quash the complaint dated January 20, 2009. The complaint, under Section 12 of the Act, is currently pending before Patiala judicial magistrate first class. One of the petitioners is complainant Pooja Ranis mother-in-law, while the other petitioners are her sister-in-laws. As the matter came up for hearing, Justice Nirmaljit Kaur in her order observed the petitioners were women; and had been summoned under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. As per Section 2 (q), complaint for offence under the Act can be filed only against adult male persons, and not against women. Justice Nirmaljit Kaur also took note of the fact that the petitioners were placing reliance on the judgment of Madhya Pradesh High Court in the case of Ajay Kant versus Alka Sharma. Issuing notice of motion on the petition, Justice Nirmaljit Kaur also directed stay on further proceedings as far as the present petitioners were concerned. Before parting with the order, Justice Nirmaljit Kaur also fixed May 27 as the next date of hearing in the case.

1) Its a civil case which can become criminal if orders are not obeyed. 2) Husband need to come if called by the judge and on important dates. 3) There can be many cases he can file but there is no law as cruel and biased as DV. So, you will always have the upper hand. Having said that, this law should be used in cases where you really have suffered very badly. Remember, after this, there is no going back and your house will be full of bitterness. If the case is false, you will gain in the initial rounds but after that you will have many difficulties proving things. If you have filed the case just to harass your husband then you have taken a wrong action. If you and your husband had some minor issues or if both of you are not compatible, just go for separation and do not file anything in this law. Nobody is a winner in this law its a sure short mental wreckage law. You will never be the same person again.

ILLEGAL LAWS Food For Thought: Our learned legislators responsible for the recent, politically correct flurry of gender biased laws should take a good look at the UNITED NATIONS STANDARDS AND NORMS IN CRIME PREVENTION AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE particularly at the definition of Victims of Crime. See Link http://www.unodc.org/unodc/en/justice-and-prison-reform/compendium.html 1. Victims means persons who, individually or collectively, have suffered harm, including physical or mental injury, emotional suffering, economic loss or substantial impairment of their fundamental rights, through acts or omissions that are in violation of criminal laws operative within Member States, including those laws proscribing criminal abuse of power. 2. A person may be considered a victim, under this Declaration, regardless of whether the perpetrator is identified, apprehended, prosecuted or convicted and regardless of the familial relationship between the perpetrator and the victim. The term victim also includes, where appropriate, the immediate family or dependents of the direct victim and persons who have suffered harm in intervening to assist victims in distress or to prevent victimization.

3. The provisions contained herein SHALL BE APPLICABLE TO ALL, WITHOUT DISTINCTION OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS RACE, COLOR, SEX, AGE, LANGUAGE, RELIGION, NATIONALITY, POLITICAL OR OTHER OPINION, CULTURAL BELIEFS OR PRACTICES, PROPERTY, BIRTH OR FAMILY STATUS, ETHNIC OR SOCIAL ORIGIN, AND DISABILITY. (Emphasis, mine). So, are discriminatory laws such as our DV scams, 498a charades, etc., indeed legal???

I am married since past 2+ yrs. In Oct 2010, my wife delivered a baby girl. Since marriage I am facing ego issues, differences of opinions from my wife, but I have always ignored it as I wanted to save my marriage. But now my wife has left my home, saying that she is not well. She did hava a problem of VERTIGO. This happened 20+ days back. 2 days ago her dad called my dad & told hims that my wife will not return home, means she will not return to my home. There were no reasons given, nor was an attempt made to clarify/sort out issues. Just the final verdict fro her father. I am aware of the The Protection Of Women From Domestic Violence Act, 2005. I want advise as to how can I save myself & my family from any consequences, if she tries to take undue advantage of DV Act. Should I go and inform my local police about this or file a safety application against my wife using DV Act. Kindly guide. Thanks Polite-polite. Navi Mumbai.

I want right to protection and residence in parental house so that i can live together with my ailing mother who wants the same. Also according to Hindu succession act i am legal heir to my parents joint family property; but my brother denies us every right; my mother is in possession of half the portion of the said house; and she has filed a title suit against my father and her son as to the property was created by her stri dhan then how can it be transferred by my father alone in the name of a gift to my brother who has lived away from parents and me since 1986 in the same house by dividing it. My domestic violence case is pending and the magistrate has asked for a citation of court reg right to residence and protection. please give me citations on this from high court or supreme court of india.

First of all do not panic. Nothing will happen. Since you have not written anything about the case, its very difficult to comment. Once you prove that she is already married, things will change. Always appear before the court, there is nothing wrong in that. Follow court instruction for any interim relief given to her. If she is working then she will not get any money in initially. DO NOT GIVE ANY MONEY TO HER DIRECTLY. If court directs anything then do it in front of the court. This law is being mis-used by many women but courts have become smarter now. So, fight against it.

I have filed the case of DV and 498a(I tired to commit suicide) against my husband.No doubts looking at my case everybody(lawyer) suggested to put divorce. which I am not at all willing for. I asked suggestions from my family/friend lawyer they suggested me for other option of compromise but at

the cost of apology letter from him and all respondent,becoz as from very begin they have lied and created conspiracy against me. I asked for apology letter they were ready to summit but as the compromize is signed they denied and whereas the judge ,my own lawyer are saying it will cause them imprisonment so judge cant allow them to do so.Actually they are literally saying its not possible as per the law or constitution. It is true if they will give an apology letter then without any prosecution judge has to jail them on the basis of it. Plz just clear my this doubt as different individual here is with different opinion. I will be thanful to u always Sangeeta

I need help for a similar case where husband and wife are threatening husbands family for money. they have threatened that they will file a case of domestic violence and send every one to jail if they are not given money within a week. what precautions should the family members take so that they dont go to jail if the wife registers a false case against them. the family is ready to give the money but they want their son and daughter in law to move out of their house and promise not to register any false case against them in future, what legal actions should they take so that the settlement can be made outside court and within a short span of time?
