Risk after settlement of case Risk after settlement of case

2 years ago

My cousine filed a case on me extortion, blackmailing through online fake account.
Case was settled by paying some money. No fir was filed. Can she again go to police and file fir in same case? We don't have any paper of settlement.
Police said we'll close this case and destroy evidence. How can i make sure that this case is actually closed and no fir will be filed for this particular case.

A.Dear Client

As per the facts which have been provided, if the case has been settled by paying some money kindly ask the other party to sign a document stating that the payment has been made and further no legal action will be taken from their side regarding this matter.

Hope this clarifies your query and requirement.

Thank you.

A.Dear Sir,
If you are negligent about closing the issue legally then nobody can save you. Better take proper closure documents.

A.Dear Client
when you went for settlement you should have got everything recorded on a paper signed by both the parties showing that settlement has arrived at an no further case will be initiated by any party. You need to press for that and get an agreement done to be sure.
Since you do not have any document then unless you hear from the police consider that there is no case.
