Settlement Amont - regarding

tamil (Querist) 21 August 2010 This query is : Resolved
Respected Sir/Madam,

I got married. My diverse case is going on in court for the past 3 years. I have no child. But, my father expired with my husband torture. My husband is not good at character. I lost my fallopian tube. I asked some settlement amount for me. But my husband refused to give that amount. So, my lawyer advised me that "First, get that amount from him and sign in the diverse paper,and then we will file domestic violence case, then we can ask some settlement amount from him" like that. Is it possible to get the settlement amount again after getting diverse? Is there any section in law?

Absolutely no chance. Once you take divorce,there ends the matter.

You want the settlement amount twice or once? You can get the amount any time but as after the divorce there is a chance to avoid the payment it is better to get the settled amount before the date of final hearing.

I agree with the above experts .settle the matter first and go for divorce , it is better for you to go for domestic violence act first than for divorce. But option of section 125 Crpc is still available even after divorce but "it is maintenance".
