If the mediator is calling your parents for an amicable settlement, why are you hesitating?, The case if it is likely to be settled through mediation, it will benefit you moreover there are chances that the 498a may be quashed.

If she has filed divorce, if you are not willing to live with her anymore, you can submit a memo stating that you submit to the decree prayed for by her. This will ensure a peaceful divorce.

1. Nobody can tell what is cooking in her head. The only thing you can is continue your case on merits.

2. If the mediator has called your parents then they should appear, failing which the mediator will send an adverse report against you to the court.

3. If your parents have been granted bail by the court then there is no risk attached to their appearance before the mediator.

4. Alternatively, you may also apply to the mediator to permit them to appear through video conferencing, but this is rarely allowed.

1. Your query is not clear. Has the Mediator of the Court where your wife has filed the divorce case, called you?

2. If yes, then you need not take your parents and after visiting him you can tell that mediation is not possible at this stage,

3. In the above event, the Mediator will submit report before he Court stating'Mediation has failed',

4. The Divorce case then will start to be heard,

5. Taking your parents to Nagpur is of no use to you and is advised against.

1. Taking part in mediation has no negative impact.

2. You can show the evidences in hearing and not in mediation. Mediation is for mutual settlement of the dispute and if you do not want settlement then refuse to participate in mediation.

3. Unless both parties want mediation does not happen.

settlement is always better so first of all try to settled the matter amicably otherwise fight the case on merit.

first and last try and call your parents to came and sit for mediation before court appointed mediator and try to resolve the issues amicably.
