Non-Appearance of respondent in divorce proceedings

I have filed a divorce case (in family court) against my wife for cruelty and desertion. Her father has made appearance on her behalf with POA and submitted reply as she has gone abroad to study.

Isn't it mandatory for the respondent to appear in divorce proceedings especially in reconcillation.

In my case, her reply has been taken on record and there are no reconcillation proceedings happened.

What is the remedy available to me?

Wife went abroad after filing false 498A and DV Case.

Wife has fled to abroad after filing false 498A and DV case. Now her counsel takes date on one pretext or the other and the cases are not progressing. I want to finish off the cases as soon as possible as I can disapprove all of her false allegations with sufficient proofs.

What should I do so as to conclude the cases as soon as possible? Kindly suggest?

Application under Order 8 Rule 10

I have filed a divorce petition (in family court) in which notice was issued to the respondent and duly served to the respondent. But on that date, the respondent didn't appear and a proxy counsel appeared on her behalf. Judge put up the matter for next date. On next date, the counsel for the respodent appeared and filed the reply to the divorce petition. It is important to note that the said affidavit in said divorce petition was signed within 15 days of serving of notice to the respondent.

Now the reply has been filed after 85 days as compared to the time of 30 days. In first date, the Judge has not written anything in the order for extending the time from 30 to 90 days.

Now since the reply was prepared was within 15 days of service of notice but has been submitted after 85 days. What recourse should i take?

FIR withdrawal - consequences

Dear Mr.Kiran Kumar,

Thank you for your very prompt reply. It is very helpful and gives us hope and courage to take the next step.

In the last sentence you mentioned SC judgements? What are they? And where do I find them? (Excuse my ignorance)

Thanks again.

FIR withdrawal - consequences

Dear Law Experts,

I have just come across this fantastic website where you are helping people like me who know nothing about legal matters, but are unfortunately caught up in legal battles. Thank you so much.

My friend with the advise and pressure of her lawyer, and unfortunately not knowing any better and not having anyone better to advise her, filed an FIR against her husband. While her allegations are true, she doe not want to go ahead with the allegations. However, she has been advised that now she cannot withdraw the FIR. If she did, her husband can file a defamation case against her. I read in one of your answers that such cases can be quashed with mutual compromise. The lawyer is not willing to go down that path. We dont understand why.

My questions are:

1. If she, or someone on her behalf, initiates a dialogue for compromise, will it go against her?

2. Will there be any other adverse consequences? What other charges can the husband bring against her?

3. What precaustions should be taken while coming to this compromise? Can this be done with a mediator and without the presence of the lawyers?

We are so much in the dark, Please advise.
Thank you very much.
