Divorce on basis of desertion while children's maintenance is ongoing

I separated from my husband in 2018.

 

Currently, there is case regarding children's maintenance is on going (children are the plaintiffs). My husband has also filed a case for division of residential property that we jointly own and I live in with the children. This case is also on going.

 

My question:

While these above mentioned cases are on going, can my husband file for divorce on the basis of desertion?

 

regards

Yes, there is restriction on him to file a divorce case simultaneously.

I stand to be corrected but the two responses above seem to contradict each other. 

One answer - Yes, he can (file for divorce). 

Second answer - There is restriction (he cannot file for divorce while the mentioned cases are ongoing).

Which is correct? 

 

Or am I missing something?

It was an oversight error. 

The word 'no' was omitted in my post 

 

I stand corrected. 

I repeat that there's no repeat NO restrictions to file the proposed divorce case simultaneously 

Inconvenience regretted

Both the cases are separate (different) and can be filed separately before appropriate jurisdictional court
