Mutual consent divorce - cash and dd

Saravanan sir, thank you for your prompt reply

Sir, it is out of court settlement, do judge mention the amount which I pay in cash in the petition.

You may pay the cash amount in court before judge directly to your wife and ensure that the same is also mentioned in her statement. This step would remove all your doubts. As such there is no problem in future.

@Sidarth sir,

You mean in her affidavit Statement?

Not in the affidavit but before the judge that she had received full amount including cash as was settled with you.

Sidharth sir,

Up to this stage I paid her in Demand Draft, in this Divorce case I have to give her 2 lakh DD. But my lawyer is asking me to give half amount in dd and remaining amount in cash.

you want her to state the amount in her statment ... But we have filed 13B petitition along with her statment before in the court, can we edit this in her statement.

Cash is fine but make sure you only pay it in court, and have her sign off saying that as well. Otherwise your MOU says 2 lakh DD but you're only giving a 1 lakh DD, so she can say "Where's the rest of the DD as per MOU?"

Not sure why your lawyer is asking for half to be paid in cash when it's already been decided.

They will take money and wont appear on second motion.  Be careful, give cheque, dont give DD.  Ask to stop payment of cheque till you get divorce. decree,

@ Malhotra Sir,

This is the second motion final day for divorce.
