How to assess maintenance amount likely to be ordered in CrPC 125 or HMA 24
This is a perennial question asked by men facing marital issues and one of these maintenance cases: CrPC 125 Sec 24 of Hindu Marriage Act (HMA 24) Maintenance asked in petition filed under DV Act (the maintenance proceedings run under CrPC 125) It seems no amount of replies as to how it will be calculated is enough. Maybe when the mind gets into an obsessive mode thinking about something, it asks the same thing again and again no matter how many answers anyone else can provide, be they laymen or experts it doesn’t matter much! So instead of attempting to give an answer it, I have decided to post some useful judgments where maintenance was decided seemingly in an objective manner based on data presented in front of judges by both husband and wife. So this should be simple homework on … [Read more...] about How to assess maintenance amount likely to be ordered in CrPC 125 or HMA 24
How to handle false cases from wife who has a boyfriend
In case you face threats or actual legal cases like DV, CrPC 125, 498A, 406 from your wife who also has a boyfriend, the situation can be turned to an advantage, of course only if one is able to get over the shock of the whole fraud which has been perpetrated, and assess things from thereon. The context of this post refers to those marriages where the wife starts to show erratic behaviour etc right in beginning of married life (read Advice to men post for details). Many such women come from feminist/matriarchal families, and if not outright feminist family, then having been raised in an environment of independence and pampering probably. End result is same: their attitude towards men and relationship is nothing normal. What kind of evidence and clues she might have left? Such a … [Read more...] about How to handle false cases from wife who has a boyfriend
Chennai HC explains the ‘secrets’ of how family courts (don’t) work in India
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Be-creative-end-alimony-delays-Madras-high-court/articleshow/39971242.cms Passing orders on a petition filed by Anita, who said her husband Mahaveer Sancheti had defaulted on payment of monthly alimony of 10,000 since 2011, Justice S Vimala said in an order on Tuesday that courts should not do three things while handling such cases. One: They could not remain a mute spectators, merely recording the fact that maintenance amount had not been given. Two: They could not ask the wife to file a new execution petition, as it would give the husband some more opportunity to drag proceedings. Three: They should not grant innumerable adjournments, so that the wife is unable to realise the maintenance amount. Fact 1: Family courts in India are places where … [Read more...] about Chennai HC explains the ‘secrets’ of how family courts (don’t) work in India
Notes and questions on court procedures
Question: Usually how the court cases take place ? Like how much time is allocated , do we get chance to talk in court ? Whats the normal court procedure ? I heard the judge dont even look at the person and ask two questions and give other hearing date Yup. Broadly correct. Bench clerk will call the case in open court, judge will take the case file from bench clerk, look at case file, then at advocates of both parties, then into the case file, and at bench clerk from time to time. In the meantime, one or both advocates will say something to judge about the case, and before you realize what was said, the next date may be given and pronounced by bench clerk. Myth and Reality of courts and court procedures Each court is different, but some broad points will remain the same across … [Read more...] about Notes and questions on court procedures
How to fight false cases of DV, maintenance, CrPC 125, 498A etc
False cases by women on men kept on increasing – they started from 498A, flourished after DV Act was passed in 2005, and unmarried women used ‘technical rape’; after 498A arrests became difficult due to SC judgment of Jul 2014, some married women quickly switched over to IPC 377 (unnatural sex) and even IPC 354 (outraging modesty of woman) on father-in-law or brother-in-law. Suicide of husbands kept increasing. 21st century is here in full force! Some people think all this was predicted by some wise guy 5500 years back, but he didn’t tell the ways on how to fight these cases which will happen in 21st century, so here we are making a humble attempt to do the same! Do you have the fight in you? Before we proceed to read further on how to fight, shouldn’t we be clear whether we have the … [Read more...] about How to fight false cases of DV, maintenance, CrPC 125, 498A etc
