I have seen your query carefully and found that you are willing to know about the jurisdiction of the court in matter of domestic violence act. According to the recent judgment of Supreme Court the victim can file a petition under domestic violence act where she has gotten shelter. when you are living with your parents then clearly you can file petition before the concerned criminal court where you are presently residing. if you wish to consult with me for further information and clarification then please contact me without any hesitation
