Please go throung the judgment on divorce on "irretrivable break down of marriage" with reasoned vioce of supreme court in which dicorce was granted on same ground.

Just go through the last para of page 18 and the last para of judgment.

HC in this case rejected the divorce on the ground that  "irretrivable break down of marriage"is no ground. But SC granted.

Only SC has the powers to grant divorce under 'irretrievable breakdown of marriage' and not the FC or HC which can grant divorce under this caluse.

@ Author

1. Limitation period to challenge (Appeal) is 90 days ir-respective if the said divorce was worded as IrBM.

2. May be it might be granted as ex-prty, hence the cause of action arise by wife "now" as you say.

However, dependent upon the age of litigants  it may get dismissed is my view. Keepign fingers crossed on "ex party" aprehension I raised above !

@ Arvind

I was aware of UTK HC IrBM granting last year and since miya - ex biwi are raazi so it was never challenged and to top it no other Lawyer took the persuasive opinion of UTK HC into their clients cases (if similar) and got IrBM divorce at HC level is my under statement !

Any light on above post UTK HC which any other HC granted ? It would be interesting SLP (civil) in SC then :-)
