Dear Advocates !
In a mutual divorce, Husband and Wife had filed a petition in Tamil Nadu. But, Husband, now, could not come to India to appear the court after 6 months.
Is there any possibility to get Divorce without appearance of Husband before the court?
please help.

Yes he can send power of attorney for someone who on his behalf can do the process in his absence. Number of case laws in this regard that your local lawyer can refer to the Family court for getting order in this regard.
I have myself as an advocate on the basis of power of attorney of my client got the divorce by mutual consent completed without his personal presence even for one time leave aside both motions.
It all depends on the capability of lawyer tp convince the court.
