A.Dear Sir,
No person including spouse cannot damage reputation of another spouse as such it is your civil right to file a civil suit restraining her from approaching any of the above medias and from publishing anything about you. Further you may file defamation case on the available date.
Can defamation case be filed even after the case has been closed ?
Dear Sir,
Best of my knowledge firstly you should go with the case which is the imposed by outsource employees. If it is proved that your outsource employees falsely imposed you have a strong ground for file a defamation case. on other hand defamation is defined as the writing, publication and speaking of a false statement which causes injury to reputation and good name for private interest. Defamation can be viewed criminal as well as civil offence. under Sec- 499 & 500 of Indian Panel Code victim can be filed a criminal case for defamation against the accused. Punishment for the guilty person is simple imprisonment which may extend for 2 years or fine or both. for civil suit you can move High court or subordinate court under Law of tort for damages in the form of monetary compensation.
Dear Madam,
Yes, you can file defamation case because it lowers your image in the family circle which is more important for a person to survive. If such rumors are circulated then you cannot attend social functions and if attends you have to face insults. It is a social stigma falsely created by them. You have to file before magistrate court through advocate u/s 500 Cr.P.C. First convert some conversations into text form and give big list of witnesses who received such phone calls.

Dear Sir,
She has done a serious mistake by lodging false criminal complaint against you thus she has committed a mischief which is unbecoming of holding a public office and after short domestic inquiry her services will be terminated if you lodge a complaint with her head office enclosing copy of discharge order. Secondly you can file a criminal and civil defamation case claiming huge compensation since your reputation in the society has been lowered. The finding given by the court is sufficient to establish defamation. Discharge is a strong document saying that no such complaint ever lodged and no stigma will be attached to you since the said complaint itself erased from the record.
