A divorce suit filed in USA by my son,on 5-9-14,& notice was received by the daughter-in-law on 8-9-14. After return to India (18-9-14), she filed a response petition on 25-9-14,agreeing for dissolution,asking for alimony.
Prior to this she got a Ex-Party Emergency Protection Order in her favor,alleging DV.
The EPO was to be heard on 25-11-2014.In Chennai, she lodged a 498A, 506(2) on her husband,& roped in all her in-laws,on 7-11-14 FIR filed, a LOC is issued against my son,on 8-11-14 who came to Chennai for elders mediation as per the agreement & directions of the county Court.
She directly wrote a letter to the Hon'ble Judge on 21-11-14 stating that the EPO must be extended,and her husband is a seconded accused etc.,
The judge dismissed the EPO.
She again written a letter that she is going to sue the case from India as it was not convenient to proceed the case from India.The letter is in the court file.
If a divorce got there in USA,is it valid in India?
She said that she going for a maintenance in India in that petition.Is it possible.
