Dv/stay in shared household.

Guest (Querist) 28 November 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Its repeated question only. But i have not got the solution. Plz suggest me.

Husband has applied for Null&Void. Grounds - Compelled marriage. He cheated me and used me as a weapon for money and did unlawful mariage during college days. So i complaint in police station for marriage.
I have applied for RCR. Its <1 year of marriag. We have no child.
Out matimonial home is rental house where i paid the advance. Now he vacated the home with his things. I am staying alone which i am not able to tolerate. Getting mental depession.
I have given complaint in police station for dowry, mental & physical harrasment. Its pending there.
Husband is staying now with his friends home. In-Laws are in souther part village.

1. Since the criminal case/DV is pending in police station, my lawyer said we cannot file DV act in court. Is it?
2. Is t possible for me to go and stay in his home or in-laws home? My lawyer said that since police complaint s pending, I may be trapped under trespassing. is it? (i am getting fed up of staying alone, cannot go to my parents home as its love marriage we are not in contact)

1. No, surely you can.
2. If your husband has got share in the said house then only you can get an order for accommodation in shared household.
Immediately file a complaint u/s 12 of the DV Act before the Magistrate and pray for interim orders like interim maintenance, order of accommodation etc.
The court may even pass such interim orders ex parte.

No. he dont have any house in his name. its in my fatherin-ln name. So now where can i stay?

FIle before the magistrate means where? in court or i should go to magistrate office?

The guidance of your lawyer seems wrong on the face of it as you have got every right to file DV case against your husband and there is no law to trap you if your dowry and harassment matter is still pending with the police authorities. As the house is in the name of your father in law so you have no right to have share household therein but definitely you are entitled for the grant of regular monthly rent for the house at par with the status of your husband. It shall not exonerate your husband from his legal liability to maintain you under the garb of his petition seeking declaration of marriage as null and void. You can also claim under section 24, the maintenance for you in the ongoing petition filed by your husband.

The you have to apply for alternate accommodation.
The Magistrate means the court where such DV cases are filed.
