Voice recording in matrimonial issues

1. Call recordings (recording while talking to wife on phone): I do not have call details to support those recordings as that mobile number of mine has been deactivated. Will such call recordings (not supported by call details) be accepted?
Take: Summon service provider with complete records of registration as per TRAI Rules of both from / received no. and produce along with original media. It will be acceptable and first bar removed.
    
2. Voice recordings (of family meetings that we had with wife parents): In one of a recording (of duration about 2 hours) my in laws accepted ( in a very clear voice) all my wife's mistakes and her abrupt behaviour but some part (10 minutes) of that recording (which is not useful)  is not very clearly audible as MIL was sitting far. Will such a recording accepted as the most of the recording (in which MIL accepted wife's all mistakes) is audible????
Take: What point you are making should be audible and rest should not be tampered if there then second bar is removed.
    
3. What is other party refuse that the voice is not theirs? I have heard that judges at family court are very lethargic to send such recordings at forensic lab?? Is it the scenario is family courts??
Take: Your misconception about Judges is typical. In family law matters you have to remove third bar that how important are production of voice samples as well as collaboration with produced media which has not been tampered all crucial in just decision of the case. Once you remove this very first crucial hurdle by persuasive pleadings above two comes into picture. If not then tomorrow every husband will flood Family Court with original media for maalkhana safe keeping and Family Court will not have any other work other than summary using Govt. Truth Labs only for this purpose so how all these will sound given to understand now Android Phones and recording Software are easily available in grey market and most affected husbands are from S/w – IT fields…..
