This query is : Resolved
I got married in April 2010. we had disturbed life immediated after we returned from honeymoon. My wife had told me she goes for meditation once in a month for two hours to which I had no problem. After two months of my marriage she started going to her guru from morn.0800 Hrs to 2130 Hrs. Hr mother used to pick her up on every Sat & Sunday inspite of my stopping her. Both of them declared that I should have my own friendly circle for week ends and National Holidays as she would be with guru and Her Guru was her first priority, 2nd her parents and 3rd husband and my parents had no place in her life..She started threatening for divorce and at times suicide. She had hidden from; me that she was suffering from PCOD, Depresssion and Fissures problems. She destered me 3-4 times for a period of 15-20 days each. Her father used to tell my father "Keep them away this will create ignition between them.
Then Last when she deserted me .For three months I tried through my relatives, friends but she did not come back. Her parents also did not respond.Inbetween she went abroad for one month and did not provide me her Flight detail, Hotel details. Coming back details.
Finally my lawyer filed Judicial separation thinking that they would run to come back to matrmonial home. But she filed maintenance case. The case went to mediation in the first hearing and mediation failed as I refused to stay with her.
We provided detailed case of her income, my income, expenses, investments. The court ordered to product financial details of both of us with income tax returns.- which is in process.
She is earning 6.5 lacs p.m and now claims she has left the job about a month back.
They have put case in CAW Cell, with inflated list. We have returned admitted list items (Genuine) Her digital locker was opened in presence of police. The case is going on.
The have filed DV case after one year of separation.
During the first date my lawyer told me that she would handle the case and we do not need to attend. However her assistant could not manage passover and she reached court late by an hour. The judge told that during the next hearing exparte decision would be taken. However she convinced the judge showed her airticket etc. and the next date was taken as 4th Sept. Today we went to MM court and judge was on leave. Reader had our date of today.Steno had date of next hearing sometime in End Dec.
My wife father was present whereas the attendance was shown both my FIL and my wife. My Lawyer's attendance was not shown
her assistant's attendence was not shown during the first hearing. My lawyer is saying she will manage.
I am confused , Can u guide me . Do I need to change my lawyer. My wife has demanded maintenance and compensation here also.

if your wife is well qualified and was drawing rs 6lakhs per month it would be diffcult for her to get an order of maintenance .
as far as DV case is concerned you have to fightc ase on merits . DV cases take 3 to 4 years to be disposed of .
have faith in your lawyer . if you so desire you cna show your case papers to local lawyer for second opinion .
