Sir,

On what point she says that the husband has not acted as per the compromise deed?

Compromise deed will be applicable and will bind both the parties.

Better would be to reopen the second motion and make sure it gets passed in any case.

Warm Regards

{It is query from the petitioner wife].(for kind ATTN.Mr kapil chandna)
The execution petition filed by petitioner to execute the settlement/compromise deed submiited to respective judge in distt. court by the court's appointed mediator stands dismissed by judge 'as the petitioner has 'withdrawn' the McD 13B' in 2nd motion "(ignoring the fact on record that wife did not go for divorce since the respondent had not comply the main term/condition of settlement deed up to the date of 2nd motion)
Under this context, appeal is being filed before respective DJ. Please advise ,any other legal remedy as petitioner wife is suffering depression and uncertainty
Thanks
