Dear Madam,
1) How to party her husband here in DV? for what reason?
Ans: The husband must be arrayed as 1st Respondent as he is always committing domestic violence against the petitioner/wife.
2) Will there be arrest in all DV cases? will my sister's husband get arrested here if we put DV? Or the wife's consent will be taken if at all the judge wants to issue any arrest order against husband?
Ans: As per the recent judgments of Supreme Court the husband should not be subjected to arrested in DV cases under any circumstances. If such order passed in worst case, then the wife can immediately file a Memo saying such order may be withdrawn and thus she can save her husband from arrest. The relevant SC judgment is as follows.

Non-payment of maintenance arrears not an offence under Section 31 of Domestic Violence Act: Karnataka HC [Read Judgment]
Karnataka High Court has held that penal provision found in Section 31 of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 could be invoked against the Husband for non-payment of arrears of maintenance. Justice A.V Chandrashekara held that Section 20 of the Act separately provides for monetary reliefs.
He filed an application for discharge under Section 239 CrPC which was refused. The appeal against that order of refusal was also dismissed by Sessions court, which made him prefer a Revision before the High Court.
