If she is preparing, what is your brother doing.
Solve the misunderstanding instead of simply thinking that she is going to file some case.
Let me assure you, courts cannot give you any remedy in matrimonial matters.
They will simply pass some order which is not beneficial either to petitioner or the defendant.
Solve the matter amicably before going to court.
One thing is for sure, if she files some case, the case will run for 1–2 decades, everybody including her will suffer. Whether you are guilty or not that will be proved by the end of the case. If proved guilty, who all are named under 498a, all will go to jail for 7 years.
If it is proved that she has filed a false case, then you will have to file separate case asking court to send her to jail for lying under oath and wasting court time.
All these will take 1 to 2 decades to get over. After going through all this, who will stay together? They will want to file divorce, that will take almost similar length of time to get over, if parties dont mutually consent for divorce.
So instead of wasting 1–3 decades in courts, simply pay what the girl wants or simply adjust with the way she wants and you can either continue leading happy married life with her or simply take mutual divorce and move on.
