Dear Sir,

It seems it was dismissed due to non production of sufficient material like audio recordings about cruelty.  Court always stand at neutral place.  It is for the party to produce  necessary audio recordings and oral evidence by your witnesses to convince the court about mental cruelty given by your wife.  Anyway you can prefer appeal and try to produce audio recording and now so much of time is elapsed so High court will pass orders in your favor as your martial relationship cannot be restored.

The divorce case was dismissed and therefore an appeal must be filed against the dismissal order in the high court.

After the dismissal of your divorce case the absence left on you to go for the revision of the dismissal in Higher Court we can understand that he painful 3 years but this is sometimes happening in divorce cases because the primary objectives of the course art to Reconcile the matter instead of giving the divorce.

1. Audio recordings are very much admissible in evidence in accordance with provisions of Indian Evidence Act.

2. In DV case there is no chargesheet as it is a quasi criminal case. 

3. You are free to challenge in the High Court the dismissal of the divorce petition. Nothing can be said on merits unless the judgment is perused,

You may prefer an appeal against the judgment given in the divorce case.

You may go through the judgment as to what went wrong in your pleadings or in the case filed b by you. It is an erroneous judgment you have strong grounds for appeal.

You may better engage an experienced lawyer to prefer appeal before appellate court by placing strong grounds for appeal.

You should file detailed reply denying allegations against your family in Dv case 

 

2) stop paying EMI of flat 

 

3) let flat be auctioned as you are unable to pay EMI 

 

4) court would not direct you to pay EMI if you have no funds

First of all stop worrying or getting frightened on their silly and childish threats they pose against you in all the aspects you have mentioned here.

You challenge her interim maintenance case in the DV case on the basis of the dismissal of her 125 cr,.p.c. maintenance case.

You can refuse to accept her claim for compensation of such a huge amount.

It is your decision to continue to pay the EMI in future or not.

Dont be pressurised on their words that you have to pay EMI or they will make you to pay it somehow

They cannot do anything on it.

Your father disowning is legally not acceptable because such relationship will never end just because he disowned you, it is a gimmick.

You challenge her false cases in the trial  proceedings properly.

They can't force you to pay the same.  They are threatening you.
