Op dismissed with advice to file joint petition

Guest (Querist) 17 April 2015 This query is : Resolved
The divorce petition filed by wife got dismissed after the trial. It took almost six years to completed the trial, and the judgement says that the petition is dismissed with advice to file joint petition.

So, what does it mean? Why the advice for joint petition is added to judgement?

Does it confers any additional rights to the petitioner in future ie. Appeal?

The petition is dismissed. Now, what are the options before the petitioner to proceed the same case ie. Appeal/Fresh petition before high court/ or anything else?

Unless we look into full text of the judgement, we cannot comment on why the petition is dismissed and why filing of joint petition is suggested. You can ask your advocate who defended your case.

it is necessary to peruse order passed by family court . petition may have been dismissed as you must have failed to prove allegations made in petition . hence judge suggested go in for divorce by mutual consent

Full case file including judgement need to be referred, consult some senior local lawyer and show him the case file.

You have not given the reason for dismissal of OP. Who filed the Divorce OP and why the court has ordered for joint petition?, was it due to withdrawal by the petitioner as not pressed? Your lawyer will be having answers for all your question, take his advise.
