What if I have changed addresses and court sent notice to previous add


26-Dec-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Hello Lawyers, My brother (present age 20), somebody hurt him badly in head on 2015 at Bokaro, Jharkhand. He was bleeding that time and my mother filled an FIR complaint against that boy. Policeman not given the copy of complaint that time because of that we are not sure about the sections under the case filled up. Earlier October 2016 my all family moved on Delhi and now we are in Mumbai. We all have the government hospital papers, News paper cutting and some witnesses for the case. recently we got a call that court sent us a notice previous month for the case attendance but we were not aware about that notice. kindly guide me what will happen next in this condition.

you will have to appear and apprise the court about you change of address otherwise court may dismiss the case altogether and further if you dont appear as witness court may issue warrant againist you .my advice would be to either appear and apprise the court or if sections are compoundable u/s320 then file a petition compounding the said offence .

Just call back and enquire about the case number, next date and court name.. be present on the nextdate in court and give your statement as witness.... the case might be pending for your evidence.. its better to be attentive.
