divorce

Greetings,

In the Hindu Marriage Act 1955, a husband can file divorce or appeal for dissolution of marriage in the court of appropriate jurisdiction. Either spouse can file the petition on specific grounds mentioned in the Hindu Marriage Act 1995.

In certain cases a husband can avoid paying alimony, however having s*x chat is not a crime, but having extramarital affair or adultery is an offence. Indulging in s*x chat is completely different from indulging in a s*xual relationship outside marriage with another man. Sex chat is no proof of adultery. Your husband can seek divorce on the ground of cruelty as Indulging in s*x chat is an act of cruelty. Merely a chat will not amount to cruelty until it is repetitive. Also, he cannot refuse to provide child maintenance on this ground.

Hope this helps.

1.  Husband can file for Divorce and legally avoid paying any Alimony or Maintenance or other amounts to Wife, PROVIDED he proves in court that Wife's immoral chats and/or adultery with other person have caused him continous grave mental & physical trauma.

2. The above is not easy since he will have to get hold of your phone and produce it in Court.  You are advised to delete all immoral chats and throw away the SIM card and stop such nefarious activities and lead a peaceful married life.

Obtaining s*x chat of wife with a person other than husband do not constitue any crime or a ground for divorce as provided in Hindu (or any other Personal law) Marriage Act, 1955.

The husband has to provide alimony to wife and child(ren) even on grant of decree of divorce under the provisions of either of the Personal Laws.

What do you ,mean by "s*x chat with a person other than than the husband"? It appears that there are deeper issues. Please post complete facts.
