icon Wife has filed 498A and DV case, how to file a divorce case?

I have already filed H.M.O.P case on March, 2021 for consequential rights. But my wife was filed 498A and DVC Case on April, 2021 and July, 2021 against me. Further I know that, she will again plan to


A. When you have already filed a case for restitution of conjugal rights then during the pendency of this case you cannot file divorce without withdrawing the present case. So, if you want to file a separation case then first withdraw the current one. Secondly you do have a good ground of 498A and DV causing mental cruelty to you which can be formed as the ground for divorce.

icon How to avoid entrance of my wife in matrimonial house post filing divorce

Dear Sir, I have filed divorce case against my wife and have informed her. At present she is living in her parental house for last 15 days. We have kept our home (Matrimonial house) locked since then


A. Hi,
A married woman has the right to enter her matrimonial home as much as she has the right to enter her natal home. There is no legal provision as such to prevent her by entering the matrimonial home. Even trespass wouldn't stand since she has the right to enter the property. Only after the divorce has been decreed can you get a restraining order.
If you like my answer, then please rate me.

I have applied for contested divorce and its been 2 years I just got to know that they would hire a private detective to know about me. How to come out of this problem.


A. Hello Sir
Hiring a Private Investigator is a general practice done by most of the people in divorce cases in order to prove the allegations they have made. In order to come out of this problem you are advised to request the Judge in the next hearing to direct the opposite party to not to breach your privacy. And in case they still does than you have all right sue them for infringement of your privacy.
Thanks

A. Hi,
Dowry is a punishable offence and would attract legal complications. If a harassment case is initiated against you, then you can show the voice recordings as proof which prove the opposite of her claims. It is always advisable for you to settle the issues out of court and amicably and filing a case must be seen as the last option. If your wife is ready for a settlement, please go ahead with it.
