How to get copy of petition in DV case How to get copy of petition in DV case

3 years ago

Hello,
My estranged wife has filed a Domestic violence case against me in Bangalore traffic court in Jan, 2020. We have been separated for more than a year. She didn't tell me about the case, nor did I receive any notice from the court. I came to know about the case in Mar, 2020 through the ecourts app. The court issued summon to me but it never reached me by any medium, though my wife knows my permanent and local address. My wife or get lawyer may have given false address so that she can get ex parte orders.

After March, Bangalore courts have not taken up the case in the lockdown. After 30 Sep, the lockdown is lifted and perhaps the court will start functioning. As per SOP, I can't attend the court date in person without a call from the court.

What should i do in this case? How should i get a copy of the petition she has made and present myself before the magistrate to present my side?

Thanks
