Mc petition

All streedhan items can be claimed only through valid original VAT bills.  No bills, no claim.  As simple as that.

As regards to one shot alimony, it can be either cash, or DD.  Dont accept cheque.  If cheque gets bounced, then again you have to run behind court with cheque bounce case.  Its better to receive cash.

The old divorce petition is converted to Mutual, the old petition stands cancelled, by means of MCD application.  IF husband fails to pay the one shot alimony, then you will have to file petition again and contest it, as in such case MCD application stands cancelled.

Interim maintenance stands cancelled once you receive lumpsum one time alimony, As your marriage took place in 2012, MCD will be easy, same day you will be sent to mediation center.

Sir,

Marriage happened in 2010 and I am not  getting any interim relief.

It will be decided in coming hearing which is why he is coming for a settlement.

1.  After taking the stree dhan articles, you can sign acknowledging the receipt in the presence of two witnesses (you take your two witnesses - your uncle etc.).  2.  In the case of missing articles, once the dispute is resolved about their value, take ONLY DRAFT AND NEVER CHEQUE. 3.  First  resolve the problem that how much money you are getting in permanent alimony. In MCD, in the first motion itself, you take permanent alimony BY DRAFT ONLY AND NEVER CHEQUE.  Withdrawing the main case, I noted that it is a divorce case filed by husband.  He can withdraw at any time.  If in this case you filed any counter claim, then only the question of whether you can withdraw and if so, when, will arise.  As it is his divorce case, you have no control on it.  Try to get entire permanent alimony in the first motion itself by way of draft.  DRAFT IS THE SAFEST METHOD TO RECEIVE AMOUNT AND IT CAN NEVER BE DISHONOURED.
