What are the grounds on which I can apply for passport renewal in my current situation? 3. If my passport renewal application gets rejected, what should be my next step? 4. According to the law, within how many months should the charge sheet be filed? 5. Are there any options available to dismiss the case, considering it has been more than 1 year since it was filed? 6. Do I need a lawyer to apply for passport renewal, or can I do it on my own? 7. What are the grounds on which I can apply for FIR quash? Please suggest.

If the accused is on bail then there is no required number of days under which chargesheet has to be filed. For passport renewal the case details need to be studied in depth to find out if permission of the court is needed to renew. The bail conditions also need to be studied. For quashing of FIR you need to apply to the HC. But for that also the facts and circumstances of the case need to be studied.
