Hope you have proof of her threats

You have said case is in final stages. Is the evidence and inquiry over ? What happened during her cross examination ? Did her threats come out ? What are her counter allegations ?

Also we're you hit with interim maintenance ? I'e are you paying her something ?

I have enclosed a news paper report .... See if this helps you ...

This is just a news paper report and you should search for the case law Please post your experiences here See news report link below

@Querist,

I believe the case of 'Pankaj Mahajan vs. Dimple@kajal' is best suited to your case.

I am attaching the file herewith or alternatively you can visit and search by case name at https://www.judis.nic.in or https://www.Indiankanoon.org

Hope that helps.

Good reply Mr Sunitra Kumar

However in the case you have mentioned I think acure deression and schizopherenia are included

I am not sure IF the original poster's case has a similar schinoperenia situation

A technical question ...did you post that reply over the net or did you use an e mail to post the reply ?

Probably, you missed the important observation by the supereme court which is mentioned in Paragraph 23 of the attached document. It goes like

" It is well settled that giving repeated threats to commit suicide amounts to cruelty. When such a thing is repeated in the form of sign or gesture, no spouse can live peacefully. In the case on hand, the appellant-husband has placed adequate materials to show that the respondent-wife used to give repeated threats to commit suicide and once even tried to commit suicide by jumping from the terrace."

What you mentioned in context is the ingredients compounding the degree of cruelty and doesn't waive off the addition of suicidal threats to the meaning of cruelty.Ingredients that heighten the altitude of cruelty is decided on the case to case basis.

Hope that's sufficient explanation to clarify your doubt.

Now Coming to your technical question, Which method I do use or not is immaterial and thereby the request disposed off. In addition I would like to say use whatever method you like and suits your need as per your convenience.
