Divorce

This year january my cousin applied for divorce on grounds of cruelty. All procedures are over. On 19th of september our lawyer informed that marriage is dissolved by the court. He said he would give us the copy from court and give us. He told it will take time. But now when recently contacted he said that we should apply for copy. He also said that a notice will affixed on the court premises. Then only after when judge says to issue the copy the officer will issue. . What lawyer says is very confusing. what is the actual procedure. Please clarify... The jurisdiction of case is nagercoil cout. Is there any fee which should be paid to couet for obtaining the copy.?.

If the court has decided the divorce petition and dissolved the marriage by decree of divorce, anyone can apply and obtain certified copies of the judgment and decree of divorce by applying at the copying branch of the district court and paying required court fee for the same. No further permission or order of the family court judge required for applying or obtaining the certified copies of the decided cases.

How many days does it take sir. As i said 19th of sep judge has pronounced judgement. Can u tell me the time period?

Adv Radhika Mehta (Advocate)     05 October 2017

The time period depends from Court to Court.  However assuming the lack of proper staff in all Courts and the approaching holidays, it should easily take around 1.5- 2 months. You would have to pay a minimal charge for the same.

Im assuming that you are Christian. You can file a Petition for Divorce under Section 10 of the Divorce Act on the ground of cruelty.  Approach the Legal Aid office of te Family Court in Pune.
