Dowry__marriage

My brother is going to get married soon.
We are not taking even Rs. 1 from bride as dowry and told bride mother to do marriage in simplest way with least expenses.

Can we make anything in written and get it signed from bride side that bridegroom had not taken any consideration in marriage ?

(Divorce cases are increasing very much. We want to avoid fake case , if any , arise in future)

Plaintiff (or lawyer) filed for divorce but does not show up

Case details:
I lived with my wife for less than 9 months and then we separated because of differences. She filed a divorce case in 2020 and also attached a prayer for compensation.
https://www.lawyersclubindia.com/experts/family-court-case-for-divorce-with-compensation-740916.asp

Question:
For the past 3 court dates, the matter is at "Issue" stage, however neither the plaintiff or her lawyer show up for the court hearing. This last time the judge had a question for the plaintiff but the plaintiff wasn't present. Every subsequent hearing is usually after 2 months, and as you can see the matter has hardly made any progress in last 2 years.

My lawyer says that we can hardly do anything about this situation in civil cases. He also mentioned that the opposing counsel (plaintiff) probably comes to the court later in the day, and marks his presence so it cannot even be treated as an 'absentee'.

I have not been personally attending the hearings, so I have to go by my lawyers account. The question really is wether I can do anything to make sure plaintiff (or her lawyer) atleast attend the court hearings so that the case can make progress?

This has been nothing short of harassment, where I don't understand who to trust anymore. Sorry for the rant, but is there any recourse here?

Partition suit

Sir, I filed partition suit against my sister which she was occupying, is mymother's property in the year 1997 and and got my share in my favour in preliminary decree which was confirmed by Supreme court in 2010. I filed for metes and bound My sister son at this stage with malafide intention created a false gift deed bequeathing property from his father and his forefather and got registered in the year 2018. During the pendency of final decree my sister claimed through false relinquishment deed which was dismissed by court . Now my sister son is claiming entire property bequeath from his father as owner of the property showing fake will of year 1964 of his grandfather . Do I have right to proceed in the court for filing metes and bound and final decree in partition suit. Please advise.

Child custody execution

Dear experts:

I was awarded guardianship and custody by Family Court in Hyderabad this week after a long custody battle with the mother (child is living with the mother). The court ordered the mother to handover the child to me within two months and also gave her visiting rights to visit the child every week. In this regard I would like to ask you:

If the mother does not comply, can I file Habeas Corpus petition in High Court or must I file a regular execution petition in the same family court that gave the order (which can take months to succeed if it all)? In the famous Tejaswini Goud vs. Shekar Prasad Tiwari, the Mumbai HC and the Honble SC did allow Habeas Corpus petition to be a suitable substitution to the execution petition since it is expeditious.

Thank you very much.
Venkat

Filing a divorce petition

Dear respected experts,

I am writing on behalf of a friend who is facing trial against his wife under 498a. The trial is underway for almost 10 years and he has been sent judicial custody in the beginning. He doesn't want to live with that lady again, so he has filed a divorce petition twice but got rejected.

Our questions are:-
1. Do we need to file another divorce petition separately or the judgement of 489a will be enough for treating them separated?
2. Will the judgement of 498a help him file a successful divorce petition?

Thanks in advance..
