Hi Maam

In the instance of defamation, the jurisdiction would be determined based on the place where the defamation was caused or where the defendant resides or carries on his business or the place where any part of the cause of action arises

Yes, you can file the case if you have strong grounds for defamation. Else, you can try to explore other legal options. Also, in case the reason for withdrawal is a compromise between the both of you then you should not be filing a defamation case.
