Dear members,
My wife left me on Apr, 2006. I filed a divorce case on July, 2007, u/s 13 (1-a)(1-b) on cruelty and desertion grounds in family court. She filed her counter on Dec, 2008 (after 18 months), in which she claimed that I'm impotent and divorce be granted on her ground and not on my grounds. She also asked for the counter claim of50L for suppressing the impotency fact before marriage. Though, in her counter, she claimed that she was necked out of the house, but during the cross-examination, she said that the only reason for her living separate from husband is due to his impotency and there is no other reason for her living separately.
Now I had gone through the medical board tests as requested by her and proved to be normal (i.e i'm potent). So, her allegation of impotency is wrong.
In the above circumstances, I have the following queries.
(1) Do I have any liability of paying her any maintenance under the above said facts? If no, please provide me the citations, which I can use to strengthen my case.
(2)Since, her allegation is a very serious one, which resulted in the degradation of my character before the society, do you advice me to file a defamation case against her and her father, both alleged i'm impotent!!! Please point me to some good citations, in the similar cases.
(3) Since, she now lost her claim, can she ask me to go through the second opinion (medical board)? what is the chance that judge may oblige to her request, if at all she asks to prolong the case? And how should I object to such a request?
Regards
