1. can she try to enter legaly in our house when case is undr trial in court..?

2. what should we say to protection officer .?

3. what action can protection officer take?

1. If your father is owner of the house, she has no right to enter the house.
2. Inform PO about ownership of the house.
3. Nothing except making his opinion clear which has no force.

It seems it is your family property dispute, as your brother accompanied her to enter house, where he was disowned.

LOTS OF PEOPLE MISUSE dOMESTIC VIOLENCE ACT TO SOLVE THEIR PROPERTY PARTITION DISPUTES.
YOUR CASE FIT IN THAT SLOT.

If it was a matrimonial home of your brother's wife, SHE CAN SUCCESSFULLY FILE DV.
YOU DELIBERATELY DID NOT DISCLOSE WEDDING DATE, AND HER LAST DATE OF RESIDENCE IN YOUR HOUSE.
OWNERSHIP is irrelevant for DV Act.
And under the circumstances, advise of all experts above had suffered for want of vital fact. [ Whether it was matrimonial home of ur br wife, any time after the year 2005]
V R SHROFF (Expert) 16 February 2014
did you lodge police complaint before 25 days ???as advised by all experts to you,

DEAR STUDENT?????????????"a criminal intimidation. Lodge a written complaint with the nearest police station,WAS ADVISED TO YOU""

NOW U AGREE THAT "april 2008, and in july 2009" BTROTHER'S WIFE RESIDED IN THIS HOUSE, AS HER MATRIMONIAL HOME. SAY FOR OVER A YEAR.
So this fact is covered under DV jurisdiction.

Ownership is not a defence, once they resided as h-w.in a particular home.
So in this case, wife is entitled for order of residence in the house, and refusal means offence.

So be very careful.
Bills and rental premises prove THAT , you people thrown her out.Those evidence harm your case, and prove, she is deprived of shared household of matrimonial home, where she came first after her marriage.
Look at the Law point only.
AND DEFEND DV..

dear sir, she can get residence ordr only when she proves that sme kind of domestic violence hapnd with her...in her cmplaint she has mentiond fake incidents at that time she was nt in our house..and in 498a fir she acusd her husbnd i.e. my brother also in same incidents..
>and in her cmplaint she has statd that she never resided on rent ,she is living cntinously in her matrimonial house since mariage.and also she has statd that her husbnd is unemployd bt truth is he is employd since her mariage we have proofs...it is clear she is lying...

and after all this if she has all rights to win the case just because that she resided in our hous for sme time..it means we have no chance to win ..we should nt fight the case..what kind of law is this..she can do anythng bt we cant stop her...

recently a court in delhi given a judgement that daughter in law cant claim a residnce ordr if that house is nt an ancestral property..parents also hav the ryts to live peacefuly..
aman (Querist) 16 February 2014

Law are favouring Women..

No advisor like Chanakya ,
and u know , who rules us..
If King himself have to take care of his chair/ his votes at any cost,
You hv to pay that cost.
Kings are selected by notes and votes.
not by their virtues, dignity, Qualities.
We can never get good Laws by such Kings.
& We do not deserve, as we all are living in corrupt, unjust, filthy adm.

Answer is: Go for Niti, Dharma, Truth Lover Leaders: Or Perish.
Weaker sections like minority community, women, are strongest.
and Their thinking, their ruling is also so low, so weak, so scheduled..
And they rule the stronger!!
So stronger, Loose the battle.

& We are compelled to live here!! so bear it.........

File an application u/s.144 Cr.PC with the allegation against the opposite parties that they filed a DV case against you and your father with some false and frivolous allegations and although they are residing at their own rented place they are often coming to your house with some muscle men and by committing various nuisance creating disturbances in the locality and thereby causing breach of peace and tranquility in the locality. Simultaneously file a SUIT FOR DECLARATION AND INJUNCTION in the civil court of jurisdiction and obtain injunction order against your brother and his wife restraining them from entry in your house.

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ACT OVERRIDE CIVIL RIGHTS...
Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 16 February 2014
If husband is not the owner of the house, the wife can not claim for residence order.
So rest assured.
And do not repeat your queries.
Biswanath Roy (Expert) 16 February 2014
Oh God! made a blunder mistake. Well better you file a criminal case as advised. If inspite of 144 order any untoward incident happens come to us again for appropriate advise.

ajay sethi (Expert) 17 February 2014
you can in your written statement state that there are no belongings of the complainant in the house . that for last 5 years she has been staying separately with her husband on rent. in addition mention that 5 years ago your father who is sole owner of the house had disowned his son ie her husband and that they have ever stepped into the house all these years .

(please post all your queries in same thread )

thanku sethi sir and all experts
ajay sethi (Expert) 17 February 2014
thanks for your appreciation
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 18 February 2014
I agree with Mr Barman and Mr Sethi on the subject issue. Once she is residing with her husband in a separate home, she cannot just like that barge into somebody's house as and and when she wishes so. The protection officer may be briefed about the incidences and positions.
