Language to be used in proceedings in family courts

Should I write an applicaiton to the judge of the family court citing my limitation and is dosn't give the
decision in my favor then should I approach the High Court ?

Y E S

u can use local language / English in lower court

in HC, the lang. used is English.

FILE A RTI APPLICATION TO HIGH COURT SEEKING ALL THESE INFORMATIONS FOR LOWER COURTS.IT IS NOT MANDATORY TO FILE REPLIES IN HINDI, AS IT IS CLEARLY WRITTEN IN SUPREME COURTS CASE FILING RULES THAT THE LANGUAGE TO BE USED IN THE SUPREME COURT AND HIGH COURTS SHOULD BE ENGLISH. IF ANY OF THE DOCUMETS TO BE PRODUCED IN COURT IS IN A NOTHER LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH IT SHOULD BE TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH FOR ITS SUBMISSION.

TRY IT.

Hi Amit,

I would be highly obliged if you could give replies to my other questions as well. As already mentioned by me in my query that the family court judge has already rejected my request verbally saying that he dosn't seems it to be reasonable.

I am already thinking of writing a written application to the family court judge but again it seems he would reject it. Then I would need to go to the High Court regarding this.

I understand as you mentioned that in HC the language used is English. But as you say we can use English in lower court but the family court judge isn't allowing me to do so. :-(

Please do help and guide me.

Thanks and Regards,
Sid.

Hi Sanjeev,

Filing RTI in High Court would be too time consuming. Is it the same case with Family courts that "it is not mandatory to file replies in hindi". You are absolutly correct that language to be used in Supreme Court and High Courts should be English. But here I am fighting the case in Family Court. Is it written somewhere in case filing for family courts that the language used in family court can be english ?

Thanks and Regards,
Sid.

always submit written applications along with affidavits in court.

interium applications are decided on the basis of pleadings of the party + affidavit filed.

Sure as mentioned by you I would be giving a written application to the Family Court judge citing my limitations. Also do we have anything written in the law that case filings in family court need to be in hindi only ? Do we have any citations regarding this ?

Again I would request you to please answer my original queries as well. I would be highly obliged.

Please do help and guide me.

if your wife is educated and u can proove that she understands english courth cannot force u to file the papers in hindi

Hindi Courts dont bother about your Luxury or LIMITATIONS. Its based on facts, circumstantial evidence and laws. Ys but you may try "no hindi" like a foreigner that may only work if cud exhibit good acting.

dear SID,

Hints regarding this matter. Please do your own research.

1. Article 343-351 of the constitution of India
2. Official Languages Act 1963
3. RJS Exams include compulsory paper in English
4. English is compulsory for all advocates to attain LLB.
5. Lower Courts are court of facts and have to abide by the higher courts = court of laws which gives orders in English.
6. But since your wife is the petitioner in above case therefore I "feel" your reply must be in HINDI 
7. Other way around ask your wife + court to get the petition translated in ENGLISH for you as u don no hindi
8. Prove that your wife is capable to understand english

GoodLuck

Hi Simon,

Your suggestions are indeed great. Would implement them. I am thinking of writing an application to the Family Court Judge and would definately include the points raised by you. I am sure that the Family Court Judge would be rejecting my application. I would be challenging that order in High Court.

Thanks and Regards,

Sid.

Hi Dhirendra,

My wife is very well educated. She has done B.A, M.A., Ph.D from Rajasthan University and Interior deisgning. The medium of teaching is also English. She studied in English medium school.  So its imperative that she understands English. But unfortunalty as I have written in my query the family court judge has refused to entertain my plea and rejected my appeal though verbally.

I am now thinking of writing a written applciation to the family court judge. Based of the judgment of my written application I would be thinking of taking this matter to the HC.

Thanks and Regards,

Sid.
