Why to file sec 10 hma now?

1. In court sr. div, divorce filed by husband based on desertion and cruelty. sec 24hms 2k granted.
2. wife files sec. 9 + sec 125crpc in family court same jurisdiction, interim in 125 denied as husband accepts co habitation but wife herself denies.
3. At arguments stage JMFC hinted dismissal of sec 9 by wife as she not ready to go and co habit with husband.
4. Magistrate asking me to file sec 10 hma  which i think means judicial seperation

QUERY
a.) why am i asked to file sec 10 hma iasve gone for sec 13a i.e. contested divorce.
b. ) wife filed sec 9 which is clubbed with 125 i asked for time to file written arguments and granted next month date. should i file sec. 10????????
c.)in cross exam , wife accepted seperation of 2 yrs.
d.) The decision of civil court is binding on criminal court and not vice versa i have read so even if final maintenance granted in 125crpc can it be stayed as maintenance cannot be granted pending a case in HMA was a judgement somewhere.
e.) any suggestions experts????????

When there is divorce petition is pending you need not to file a case u/s 10 of HMA

great India when divorce petition is pending before the court and you are contesting it then don't file sec.10 of HMA it is for judicial separation , 2. i want to know when you don't want to cohabitat with him then why you had filed rcr , 3. Why you had admitted your 2 years desertion period , had he exihibit the documentry or electronic evidences for the same in the court , or you had admitted it unknowingly / willfully , you had given him a strong ground to obtain divorce .

thanks sirjee
1. i filed divorce to which wife replied with RCR +125 .
2. i gave WS stating ready to co habit, and desertion wass cause to file divorce along with denial for s*x.
3. now in her cross in rcr+125 she accepted that she does not want cohabitation 
4. i purposely asked her to join as i was sure she wont and samer happened.
5. JMFC in fly court hinted dismissal of her case but asked me to file sec. 10 hma which i dont want to as my divorce sec. 13a is pending in civil court.
6. also desertion by wife is a ground i opted to file for divorce and also rejection of maintenance under 125(4).
7. am i going on right track.....????????
8. i should be waiting for judgements in family court to be used in divorce case will it suffice as in her cross she accepted seperation since 2 yrs

1. You are in the right track,

 

2. When you have already filed Divorce Suit, what is the point in filing petition u/s10 of HM Act?

A petition for judicial separation at this stage is unnecessary, follow the case in the present form itself.
