• Restitution

Hi
Me and my wife had ego clashes for almost 3 months now. We abused each other verbally. She walked away from our home. I don't know where she is residing now but for sure she is coming to office daily when I enquired about her in her office. I tried reaching her by various possible ways. I even made a complaint to nearest police station to restore our relationship. But she didn't turn up. She is 8 month pregnant. she said she is in her home town and can't come to police station. 
Police couldn't force her to come for councelling considering her health. But I'm pretty sure she is residing nearby her office and not in her hometown.
Because I visited her hometown and checked if she is there but their parents and relatives attempt to hit me for going there.

I don't know what to do now, I want to live with her happily ever. I am concerned that they won't allow me to see her and my kid due for next month.

You can file a petition under section 9 of the Hindu marriage act for restitution of conjugal rights if you want to continue your relationship with your spouse.

Police cannot help you in this matter.

See visit her office first nicely so that no scene is created and no further differences between you two occur. if that is not possible file a restitution petition serve the notice seek mediation and try to talk to your wife. But i would advise you avoid going court first place reach out her personally and try to sort out difference and since she is pregnant you can take care of her.

 

Further if you need to go court then a restitution petition can be filed under section 9 seeking restitution with you wife but the petition can take time to dispose off, and after birth of child a petition for visitation rights can be filed.

  1. As per the information mentioned in the present query, makes it clear that you love your wife and want to see your future with her only.
  2. It happens in married life, you please take a deep breath and relax.
  3. If you file RCR then it may take sometime for you to get permission to see her or child.
  4. I advice you to please file Writ petition of Habeaus Corpus in the High Court as per Article 226 of our Constitution of India for speedy relief as to be there with her at the time of delivery.

You do not have to go and meet her personally once you have send the legal notice to her.

After your case is admitted in the court, she will be sent notices from the court and would have to appear before the court.

You can send a legal notice to her email address a swell as to her office address if you do not kno where she currently resides, with a copy endorsed to her parents' address.

Failing to respond to all these steps, you may file a petition before family court seeking  restitution of conjugal rights.

Get an exparte decree in your favor and then proceed with further steps as per law.

You cannot force her to live with you against her willingness.

If you cannot get her address where she currently resides, then it is your duty to find out the same through your own sources. You cannot give a police complaint also in this regard because she has voluntarily abandoned the matrimonial home hence this becomes a matrimonial dispute in which the police cannot interfere.

If her relatives try to assault you then you can lodge a criminal complaint against them with the local police which will make them to not to get involved in your personal affairs.

You have to pursue the RCR petition. There is no legal way to ensure your presence at the time of her delivery.

Dear Sir,

Such issues being very sensitive cannot be solved that easy. Better use good offices of common friends and try to win over her heart. Even if RCR is decreed in your favour Court cannot force her to join matrimonial house and if you venture such procedure the things may worsen.
