Dear All,
We had a divorce case in one of Delhi's district courts under HMA. The judge fixed the order date on 2nd Sept 2013. On the date, no order was passed. Upon asking the court persons, it was brought under our knowledge that the order is reserved with the judge and can be passed any time. Since then till today, we have asked so many times in the court but we get the same answer that the order still has not been passed. As we are sure that the judge will pass order against us, and we know that the time limit to appeal against the same in high court is 90 days under Hindu Marriage Act, please guide us on the following:
1. When the order date was fixed for 2nd Sept 2013, till how long normally a judge can pass the order (as in our case it has not been passed till 21st Sept 2013).
2. What is the procedure for knowing the order. Do we need to keep visiting the concerned court for update?
3. The time limit of 90 days starts from which date, date of order, date of receiving the certified copy of order.
4. Suppose If the order is passed on 23 Sept 2013, can the date of order be before 23 Sept 2013?
Waiting for your guideance.
Warm regards,
Rahul
