Firslty, yes you can file a Writ of Mandamus read with section 151 of CPC for praying the expedition proceedings in the case.

Secondly, or if you want to trigger an alarm for all then you should file habeas corpus Writ in the High Court showing that you have no idea where is your child.

Thirdly, try to not to connect to her anyway. Then go for habeas after 15 days at least.

This is my response to you:

1. In the family court you can ask the court to file summons;

2. The court will serve three times, then do substituted service and then pasting of summons on the door;

3. Even if she does not appear then you can ask the court to pass ex-parte decree;

4. You can also complain under childline helpline number- 1098;

5. Once the court passes ex-parte decree the custody will be yours;

6. Also if still your mother does not hand over your son to you then you can file a case of abduction and kidnapping to the nearest police station;

7. Your lawyer should have speeded up the process and protested well in court;

8. Unless you or your lawyer do not take full efforts the delay is going to happen.

Sir let lower court pass some order if she does not appear this time also ask for an expartee order that she is purposefully delaying so interim order may be passed and you can be given custody if she fails to appear.

further you can go to high court vide writ for direction for early disposal, the high court shall also remand matter back to trial court only.

You should file child custody case to get the custody of your children under GW act.

You are the natural guardian hence you have full rights.

You cannot file any petition before high court especially when there is a petition before the trial court.

You have to go by the court proceedings accordingly.

There is no provision in law for that.

Alternately you may file an application seeking visitation rights as an interim relief.
