Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 02 October 2020 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,
Relations between my friend and his wife are irreparably strained. My friend, therefore, wants to divorce his wife. Facts are as follows:-
1. Married for almost 18 years.
2. Two children aged approx 14 years and 9 years.
3. My friend had gone abroad for his employment about four years ago and wanted his wife to join him there but she refused. Now he has come back but she has refused to co-habit with him.
4. She does not allow her children to visit their paternal grand parents but sends or takes them to their maternal grand parents. Even with their father she tells them to maintain social distance.
5. He is giving her money regularly for all expenses.
Please advise how he should proceed.

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses a friend's desire for divorce after 18 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences including his wife's refusal to join him abroad and her current refusal to cohabit. The wife also reportedly restricts the children's contact with the paternal grandparents and father. Advice suggests exploring amicable settlement through mediation or common contacts, or if that fails, pursuing legal avenues for child custody and a divorce decree through the appropriate court.

Your "friend" is at liberty to decide whether amicable settlement with "his" wife is possible through some common relatives/ friends / respectable persons of the Society and/or mediation. If he is unable then the only alternative is to move appropriate jurisdictional court for custody of children and decree of divorce.

It would be better to let your "friend" decide without intervention of an "anonymous" person like you, who has been concealing his / her identity for posting this question for consideration and obligation of experts on this platform.

Hello,

Try to discuss the issue with her as she may be opposing due to the corona situation. Otherwise, these can be ground for divorce.

He should try to have amicable settlement with his wife, he should try to save marriage. Take help of friends and relatives, impressive people of society.

If not possible, he should contact a local lawyer and discuss in detail regarding the steps to be taken.
