My wife had filed for divorce and had asked for 30k maintainence as well. Currenlty i'm in the mediation process, the wife doesn't want to return even though i've made multiple attempts. Her objective is pull the case so that somehow i'll agree for giving some money.. The case was filed on Sep,2011 and i got the summons only on Sep 2012. Btw, sep 2011 - Sep 2012, i've been constantly visiting and seeing my wife and kids and giving money sometime by cash, sometimes by NEFT transfer. In Btw Jan 2012 - May 2012 , i gave around 9L cash via NEFT to invest in our son's name. after taking all my hard earned money... now again she wants more money.. .
Questions
I've done all efforts so that she can come and join. however she doesn't want to join. consider this can i tell the following
1. In the mediation centre, can i say that since the spouse had not come for the past 3yrs its advisable that they can grant her divorce to make her happy without prejudice to the payments given earlier? The question of alimony, maintenance can be dealt in the court??
Please advise..
