Ld.experts,
There is a recent supreme court decision that no courts either civil courts, family courts or high courts have the power to waive the statutory period of 6 months prescribed u/s.13-B. There is a very recent Bombay High Court decision laying down that where the couple have been living separately for more than one year, insisting upon statutory period is not unwarranted. My query is on what ground the Mumbai court hold differently than what is laid down by the supreme court.
Thank you for your valuable time spared for answering this query.
Regards,
Radha Pyari.S
