Joint memo

Any suggestions or advise?

Thanks,

A

You have already engaged / paid an able, competent and intelligent lawyer who is well aware about facts and circumstances of the case vis-a-vis your question(s) / query(ies), follow as advised if you have not lost your faith in him/ her (your lawyer) otherwise consult and engage another local prudent lawyer.

Dear Sir, You have understood my situation well, my lawyer has been good and I respect him but pressing for join application is disturbing me since every evidence  is open on the table now and our case is stronger. Only the opposite party is benefiting from joint application, there is no benefit for me.

I will think about your advise.

Thanks,

What are the terms in the joint memo?

That we are entering into a compromise , she will not claim maintenance and I will not escalate her false affidavit and will agree to divorce. Actually she makes same as I make I have proof and she planning to marry someone. I am ok to divorce but don't want this to be a compromise, I exposed her in court that's why they want compromise. I told I will state independently that I will not challenge her divorce, nothing else.

It is seldom that the Courts in country pursue matters regarding false affidavits, perjury etc. Your advocate's suggestion is practical and you sre certainly in the compromise. It would be prudent to satisfied with things that are certain than in pursuing things that are uncertain.

This is all the more so, since she was once your life-partner.

Sir, Thank you for such a practical advice. Courts dont seem keen to pursue false affidavits etc. which gives a free hand to the abusers, especially able and working women to seek maintenance from husbands. If this is so pervasive and so obvious  and yet courts are not taking any action, then only God can do justice to millions who are losing their families in our country. I think there should be a separate legal subject in our schools to keep the children informed of our system, they wont grow up like us expecting equity and justice. They can be prepared mentally that this is our system, good or bad, take it or leave it :). Atleast it wont result in any disappointment as they would already know what to expect !
