Advocate Madhav Lahoti answered
Section 279- Six months imprisonment or Rs 1000 fine or both.Section 337- Six months imprisonment or Rs 500 fine or both.These sections are bailable.If you're involved in a motor accident, then a claim can be filed against you under the motor vehicles Act before a tribunal and a criminal case under the sections mentioned in the query.It is advisable that you co-operate with the police and the victim to settle the case outside the court.

Advocate Madhav Lahoti answered
1. You can take back the money or any jewellery by filing an application under Section 12 of the Domestic Violence Act, 2005.2. File an application for maintainence under section 125 CrPC so as to ensure regular source of income for you irrespective of your present income.3. If he files a divorce petition, you will receive a notice to appear in court. In the proceedings it can be argued that the ground for which he is seeking divorce is not vaild, therefore no ground for divorce is made out.During the divorce proceedings, you can ask the court to send the matter for mediation.
