My wife filed a domestic violence case (498A) in her hometown, Ranchi, and it’s still pending. Can she file another similar case in Bangalore, where we both work? If so, do I need to apply for anticipatory bail in both cities? I got anticipatory bail in Bangalore based on the “fear of arrest” argument. Can I use the same reason to apply for bail in Ranchi, considering the pending case there?

Your wife cannot file another case under Section 498A in Bangalore for the same subject matter as the pending case in Ranchi. As for anticipatory bail, you should consult a lawyer in Ranchi to advise you on the best course of action, as the pending case and the Bangalore order may influence your application.

The next day, I asked them to correct the address in my DDR. They changed it, gave me the updated DDR back, but didn’t change the date or update their register.
