I got divorce in 2017 and it was agreed by both parties that no one will try to contact at the place of work.
Also it was agreed to give her a some of money every month. I had paid the money to her since the start of case (2011) . But due to pandemic n some personal reason I could not pay the money for 6/8 months.
So she filed a case to recover the money and send the summon to me. I could not received the summons for 3/4 month so she send the summons at my head office Adress to my regional joint director.

This is a breach of agreement made at the time of divorce and due to this I face embraced at my work place.

Can I file a defamation case against her.

Please give ur valuable guidance.
Thank you.
Sunil

Facts posted suggest no defamation at all.

Moreover, it is the Court which could have served the summons upon you, not your ex-wife.

She rightfully given address of your office and having statutory right to do so. Your agreement do not limit statutory rights.

Office Adress is acceptable but addressing to my joint director is not acceptable this is violation of agreement and defamation .

Yes. When you are working in an office, your office address will be given by anyone and it is not a violation.

Sir I agree with office Adress.
But a dressing to my joint director who's Adress is not my office Adress. That is a violation and this was the condition mention in divorce agreement.

An office is addressed to the Senior Most officer. Do not be so panic. contest your case on merits.
