since you are the owner of your case therefore there is no impediment in you withdrawing the case but what is important to remember is if you withdraw the case without seeking leave from the court of allowing you to file again then you would be precluded from seeking similar relief in future which can be very risk laden. regards, Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, M.Sc (Net), LL.B (Delhi), Advocate, High Court, Calcutta.
