Live in

4 years ago

Hi,
Me and a friend of mine are in a relationship last few years. His divorce case got over last Sept and we were supposed to get married.
But his wife has filed a petition for stay in high court in Dec. The trial has not yet started.
We intend to get into a live in relation until the High court case is over. But now his parents are threatening to file a case against us and my family if we start staying together. Can you tell me if they can file a case and on what ground it will be filed.
Is he not in a position to stay with me in a live in even if we want to?

His divorce is granted in family court and he has the decree as well.
A petition for stay has been filed in High court which has not been granted yet.

A.Dear Client,
You can stay in the live-in relationship and nobody can file a case against you if both you and your partner consent to that but don't get married unless the divorce case is resolved.
Thanks.
