Mutual divorce

Subbarao (Querist) 16 March 2023 This query is : Resolved
My friend and her husband applied for a mutual consent divorce. Her husband is not coming to the court.
He skipped 2 times. Her lawyer is saying this time she will get Mutual divorce on the basis of Expatriate
Also saying she has already crossed 45 years and there is provision in law if 45 year's crossed she will get the Mutual divorce in this hearing
Is it true? or Both parties have to present for getting the Mutual divorce?

Her lawyer is misguiding her.
In mutual consent divorce, both the parties to the marriage have to be present before court on the second motion and confirm their decision to dissolve the marriage.
There is no exemption for the 45 years of age, law is common for all.

It is mandatory to be present both the parties (spouses) in case of mutual divorce process. No need to have separate advocate's for both parties (one advocate is sufficient in case of mutual divorce).
