In Section 125 case, you can ask the court to direct the husband to file the list of witnesses. If the husband does not want to become witness, the wife's counsel cannot help it. But, if husband wants to come as witness, then you can request the court that he may be first cross examined otherwise he will have the benefit of hearing the deposition of his other witnesses, which is not permissible under law. The husband may choose to come first as witness or other wise to remain outside the court while cross examination of his witnesses are occuring.
