What can I do after receiving legal notice?

My sister-in-law has filed a case against my brother under IPC Sections 498A and 323. With my brother's consent, my mother took away all household articles from their house. Now, my brother and his wife have sent a legal notice to my mother, claiming she took the items in their absence and that they will take legal action. What should my mother do now? Do we need to respond to the legal notice?

Your mother should send a written reply to the legal notice stating the items were taken with your brother’s consent. Attach any proof, like messages or witnesses, supporting this. It’s important to reply legally to avoid further complications. If needed, file a police complaint to protect her rights. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
