Hi, you can contest the DV case filling written objection to the petition filed under DV Act.

2. As she is working you can file an application before the court for summon her salary statements normally court will allow the application so that you can prove that she is capable of maintaining herself.

1) you have to deny allegations made in DV complaint . Enclose documentary evidence in your possession

2) you can make application directing wife to submit her FD statements

3) application can be made before interim maintenance issue is decided

4) well settled law that person not coming to court with clean hands is not entitled to any reliefs

1. Take the defence which can corroborated by documentary evidence later so the foundation is laid.

2. During trial you can seek production of documents. During interim maintenance hearing you have to produce the documents in support of your case, if any.

3. Make a very comprehensive reply with supporting proof.

You must have produced some evidence in support of your discharge petition in 498A. In DV case also you are free to produce evidence along with your reply. It can also be submitted subsequently depending on the nature of allegations and the evidence in your possession. Let your lawyer take a call on this. You are also free to move the HC to quash the DV case. Under 91 CrPC the court cannot direct her to produce her FD statements.

no evidence as it is false..I have evidence tht allegations are false ..shall I submit evidence with my dv reply denying statement or show it later

If you have documentary evidences to prove your averments countering her allegations, you can very well attach the same now in this reply itself.

..I have proof of it..shall I use crpc 91 to ask judge to submit her fd statemnts ?

You should bring out the details during cross examination, if she denies it then you may file a petition beore court to summon the documents you desire to obtain to prove your case.

shall this application be given before interim maintainence or after

It can be given during the hearing for interim maintenance itself.

1) you can in your reply rebut the false allegations made and take the stand that salary used for investing in FD

2) you can file perjury application if false statement made on oath

3) merely because your wife is undergoing treatment for mental tension is no ground for denying her child custody

The statement what she has given about taking treatment for her mental ailment can be a very strong ground for you to plead for your child custody highlighting the mental and physical hazard for the child if it is given permanent custody to her. You have noted and brought to light a vital issue favorable to you. This information with proper documentary evidence if utilised properly may solve half your problems.

Her salary and FD issue cannot help you file perjury case because they do not constitute any ingredient for perjury.

For the false statements made by her she is liable to be prosecuted for perjury. The parents who claims child custody has to prove that he/she is better positioned than the other parent to provide the welfare of child.
