I’ve filed a case in the Bombay High Court, and it’s connected to a similar case filed by someone else. Now, I need to withdraw my case, but I can’t make it to court. Can my lawyer withdraw the case without me being present? Could the person with the connected case also close my case for me?

Yes, your lawyer can withdraw the case on your behalf. Under Indian law, a lawyer has the authority to withdraw a case on behalf of their client, even if the client is not present in court. The connected case’s party cannot withdraw your case for you.

My friend accused me of sending a message, but my SIM card went missing earlier and I think my enemy found it and used it against me. I didn’t hire a lawyer and explained everything to the police.

The police told me I can’t contact my enemy or fight with him for the next six months. What should I do? Is there still a case against me? Should I get a lawyer? Could my enemy still take me to court?
