Both the parties decided to file a mutual consent divorce. Both the parties were ready with the mutual decision and signed the documents. Hired a lawyer a filed the petition and got a date after 6 months from court. Now Boy's party is denying to appear in the court.
Can a party, which has under a settlement agreement decreed by a Court undertaken to file a petition under Section 13B has also undertaken to appear before the said Court for obtaining divorce can be held liable for contempt, if the said party decides to not to appear in the petition or motion or both to obtain divorce in view of the option to dismiss the petition of taking divorce by mutual consent.
Can court take any legal action against the party which is absent on 1st date and decided to be absent on 2nd date as well?
Will court dismiss the petition just based on the nonattendance of boy's party where as the girl's party was present in 1st date?
