Dear friends
My client got married last year in Bangalore and the boy & girl are settled down overseas where both were already employed. unfortunately they were separated with in a month from marriage as it was found that the girl had some abnormal psychological problem ( medical evidence available even prior to marriage date) and living together became dangerous for the boy's life. Parents on both sides decided that it is better to separate them. Now the boy and girl are living in different places overseas. The boy and girl gave P O A to respective parents to arrange for divorce in Indian court. The boy's parents applied to court in Chennai for divorce. The case is pending before Chennai High Court. Meanwhile, the girl's parents seem to have been misled by their friends or others and have filed a suit in a court in Bangalore against the boy's parents complaining that they are undergoing mental agony due to the divorce case and have demanded a mental agony compensation of about 25 lacs.
When already a divorce case is pending in the high court of Tamilnadu will it be right on the part of the Karnataka court to have accepted the mental agony case against the boy's parents. Is such a case tenable? What is the remedy for the boy's parents in this case.
Is there any limit on the number of adjournments that can be given by the court in a divorce case ?
How can we speed-up the judgement in the divorce case as both the boy and girl have to decide about their future.
