Can a case be quashed with reference to the judgement of split case


24-Jul-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Dear Sir / Madam, A FIR was registered for cruelty against me, my mother and 3 other relatives and the same case came into trial few years ago. Eventually the case was split into 2 with me and one of the relatives in one case and my mother and the other 2 relatives in the other. While my case is still pending trial, my mothers case underwent trials, where all the witnesses were examined. The case was dismissed recently as there was no evidence against them and that it was a false case. My question is, now that my mothers case is dismissed, is there a way to quash mine without having to appear for trials? Note: I had previously won the divorce case filed against my ex wife.
