Lawyers are available now to answer your questions.
1) you cannot be forced to withdraw your divorce case
2)wife levying false allegations against husband amounts to mental cruelty
3) wife threatening to commit suicide amounts to mental cruelty
4) quashing is done by HC only in exceptional circumstances
There is no harm in giving a second chance to your marriage why simply drinking lizol does not mean that everything is over you speak to your wife in closed and cordial way to understand the problem and try to compromise an agreement that how you want to lead your life
1. If she or her pleader is not appearing before the court in the divorce petition then apply to the court to proceed ex-parte against her.
2. If the directions of Supreme Court have been violated then you are free to file a contempt petition against police.
3. Your lawyer has rightly filed for stay on arrest. Once stay on arrest is granted and regular bail is obtained then a petition for quashing of FIR and Chargesheet can be filed under 482 Cr.P.C.
Firslty, though she has file several criminal cases against you, but still the fact that you filed divorce petition first would definitely give you an edge.
Secondly, as it is quite general that once you file any case irrespective of the nature whether civil or criminal, the other part may file false cases against you.
Thirdly, your lawyer should have filed it under 482 rather than filing an application.
Fourthly, if that application has been filed you may withdraw the same and file quashing under 482.
Fifthly, do not withdraw the divorce petition otherwise you may be looked as you were at fault.
Sir you should persue your divorce and if she is not remaining present then file an application before the court to close her rights to file reply and give evidence and proceed divorce ex-parte.
Further she cannot pressurise you for withdrawing your divorce.
Proceed with quashing, pray before hon'ble to stay proceeding at lower court further present all the documents before the high court and pray for quashing.
Also if they are ready to compromise then i would recommend ask for mutual divorce ask her to give consent quashing for all the criminal cases she has filed.
Suicidal tendency no ground for divorce.
You can convince your wife for filing divorce petition by mutual consent
Your lawyer is right in advising that he will first file a stay petition to stall all the proceedings of the criminal case till the disposal of the quash petition.
You may follow up the matter properly through your lawyer
All those issues what you have narrated here can be impleaded as pleadings in the petition filed under section 482 cr.p.c.
1. Now it is high time that you decide whether to stay with her or not.
2. if not then proceed with the divorce suit and start the evidence in the said suit.
3. Quashing petition is not likely to meet with success. Hence speed u the trial so you can come out acquitted. there is nothing to worry much if you are innocent .
4. If you do not rely on their commitment then do not make any compromise. if you prove your allegations then decree of divorce would be granted.
Continue to press your divorce petition.
If you have challenged the chargesheet in the High Court, what is that status of the said case in the High Court?
Keep participating in the trial and the same will most likely result in your acquittal.
Hello,
do not take the case back if she is not appearing then file an application before the court to decide the case ex parte.
Also, ask your lawyer to expedite the process before the hC.
Regards
1) Ask her first to sign on divorce paper and withdraw all cases which are flied against you.
you proceed with your HC quashing and try to get the stay.
Hi,
You are suggested to proceed for quashing and divorce petitions. If compromise is done, it should be done at your terms and conditions and for divorce.
Namaste everyone.....I am pursuing my case....in due course she filed 498a and maintenance of 40000 per month ....but due to stress in personal life and mental tension I performed badly at my work place and had to resign in may....quashing of 498a is underway in high court Jabalpur....when she came to know I lost my job.....her Lawyer proposed to compromise and proceed for divorce by exchanging money....what is the procedure....can she harm me in future.
1) amicable settlement is best option
2) agree to pay amount as alimony
3) enter into consent terms wherein wife agrees to cooperate in quashing of dowry harassment case
See for divorce by Mutual consent you and your wife can enter into a MOU and maintenance one time can be agreed in that then you can go for mutual divorce.
If MOU is there it will be record as her to withdraw cases and help you in quashing 498a on settlement groundm once there is MOU there won't be issue though don't pay complete sum at once.
If you want to settle the matter by compromise agreement, then you can negotiate the bargain amount and settle the matter once for all by entering into a MOU with her towards bringing an end to all kinds of matrimonial disputes pending in the courts for ever.
This would make sure that she may not trouble or harass you in the future as well.
