Hell Experts,
I got married in March this year. my wife eloped with her boyfriend in the month of July and to save her position she filed filed 498A.
I filed a divorce petition in July at my native place stating the facts and evidences and my petition has been admitted in august (because judge was on leave ) and got hearing date for September 10, but when I enquired with court persons about the acknowledgement , to my surprise the notices still not served to my wife they are saying lack of sufficient stamps for registered post as the reason. I provided the stamps and now they are saying the Judge is on leave till 2nd September, so they are saying after 2nd September only they can send the notices to my wife. (the date of hearing is 10th September)
mean while my wife applied for Null n void of Marriage on grounds of forcefull marriage and impotency on Aug 16th, and yesterday I received notice to appear to court on 22nd September.
my question is
1. I filed divorce petition 1 month before my wife's Null n void petition and I even got hearing date also (10th September) but due to court delays my notice still not have served to her. But I got notice of her petition even though she filed 1 month after my divorce petition. how it will affect my case?
2. I came to know that the notice should be served 21 days days prior to date of hearing . is that so? then my wife didnt receive my notice till now ( the date of hearing is 10 th september ) what should I do now.
please advice me .. its urgent.
