How to get divorce

Hi Gilian,

Please provide the details if your brother had inter caste marriage or has married as per Hindu Rites.. (Since marriage laws applicable to both the scenario differ)

After perusal of the story what has occured to me is that :-

1. It is essential to know if your brother wants to divorce her?

2. if ithe answer is in affirmative then you may either - wait for her to get married and then file marriage petition before family court to allege Bigamy performed by her and get the divorce in your favour. Or else you may file for marriage petition for divorce on the ground of Dessertion and seek relief before the appropriate court.

3. However, if your brother is willing to file for divorce then you should be slightly prepared for alimony. If you are able to prove that your sister-in-law is well off and earning/working then the amount of alimony shall be nominal/nil.

4. It advisable to you to take further steps showing your brother's initiative to bring her back to matrimonial home. You may keep a record of the same and their response to the same. You may write letters to her or emails (which are considered as evidence in court of law)

5. After a strong rejection from the in-laws you may decide either to file for dissolution of marriage (and its repercussions) or wait for her to get married.

6. Also please provide the exact dates and events of happening of the marriage and the period since when she has left the matrimonial home.

7. Choice is yours.

HI TATS great . let her marry , just try to get evidence tat she got remarried. u will get divorce very easily on account of bigamy and of course no alimony too . so first let her fall into ditch of getting remarried.rather she can be punished for bigamy.

Hi,

Actually we are scared that the girl's family can put a domestic violence or dowry harresment case against us once she is married. If that is done what cane we do to protect us?

Sushma,

If she is remarried, and then these cases will hold no value. You can counter with bigamy which helps in quashing all the cases. You can also get the divorce without any alimony. If she puts the DV or 498a case, just ask for brain mapping in the court for the girl. This will help in getting your doubts clear and she will spill all the lies.

Hi,

We got to know that the girl has got married and registered her mariage. How can we get the proof of the marraige registration? I guess once we get the marraige certificate xerox we can ask for divorce..

 Sushma,  your   brother   should   apply   to   the   Registrar ,   Marriage    Office  of     your   area   for  a  Registration   Certificate    in  respect  of  your  Sister - in - law    &  that  will  be  strong  proof   in  his  favour  to  file  a  case  for  Bigamy.
