It is around 17 months over I got bail for 498a case but still neither I did receive any chargesheet from court nor court able to frame the charge. So shall I approach to high court to quash this case ?

The time limitations for filing Charge Sheet is 3 years from the date of institution of the case, you should contact with your conducting Layer regarding the marit of the FIR then you should go for Quashing the same. Only non submission of Charge Sheet is not a good ground for Quashing the proceeding.

Please ask your lawyer who is acting on your behalf to obtain certified copy of the documents which you are in need of for your record. You have to obtain the entire proceedings papers certified copy for filing of the quashing application along with the order sheet till date.
