Hello,

FIR will not be quashed without issuing a notice to you. Also, you will have to file counter in which you may negate all the ground on which the respondent is requesting the court to get the FIR quashed.

A further date on 14.09 must have been given by the court. It will take 2-3 hearings for the case to get decided.

Ask your advocate as to what is the next date when the case is listed.

1. In quashing case the regular course if not filing of counter affidavit unless the court gives you such liberty.

2. The hearing of the case depends jn the number of backlog cases pending in the court. Generally it gets disposed of within six months.

3. If you engage an advocate bu giving vakalatnama no ex parte hearing would be fixed.

You should appear on the first date in High Court and ask for sometime file counter and the court would grant you 2 to 4 weeks time in all likelihood to do the needful.

Arguments are not directly heard in such cases and the respondents have right to file their counters.

if the court is convinced that the person is innocent and has been falsely implicated. A High Court can quash the FIR on the ground that the case is a false case and will ask the police to set the aggrieved person free if he has been arrested, You cannot stop for Quash.

Since you have proof for establishing his act of bigamy, you may first file a counter after receiving the summons from high court .

After that you may place your arguments objecting to his quash petition and seek for its dismissal.

After filing vakkalat how long it will take for hearing the case.in notice to me it is mentioned that on or before 14.9.2018 I have to appear in court else matter will be expartee. Is filing a vakkalat before this date is enough or hearing a case before this date is must to avoid exporter.

Is it 14.9.18 or 14.11.18?

You can file vakalat for the present and then your advocate will take time for filing counter.

You may first engage the services of an advocate and then follow his instructions on further steps.
