i think few months back,a judgement was posted in LCI wherein the judge said that live in relation means "Walk in and walk out" at will.there's no binding for a man to maintain the partner,unless the relationship has been for many yrs.,where the couple showed themselves as husband and wife to the society also.
there are people who have a relationship for 5 yrs also.so how can we say that they re husband and wife?
in the above case,did this man mention his name in any forms ,say,for example,the maid's kids' school forms?
or did he mention the maid's name as his wife wherever he may have to fill any form?
3 yrs living together is not enuf time to say that they are like a wedded couple.this seems like a big joke..
the widower man seems to have got no support,while the lady attracted many foolish sympathisers with the power of her tears...so she won.
