Relevance of stay order of 498a


27-Oct-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I am a Hindu. My wife had filed a false 498a on me and my family (Mother, father and brother), IO has filed the chargesheet in district court. I hired a HC lawyer for initiating quash of chargesheet under 482. Upon hearing, a Stay order till case pendency has been passed by HC wrt my family members only and not me. My lawyer says stay order is as good as quash, now, my question is it really the case? Wouldn't this take a long period of time to get the names of my family members off the dispute?

Dear Sir, When matter is stayed the Police are restrained from filing charge sheet and if filed they may delete the names of your family members. The final order of quashing will be at a later stage. It will take some time. If you make hurry then there is risk for you as you have to face trial and it may ended in conviction against you.
