Dear all
I had applied for divorce in 2016 and fighting other cases also filed by them. Now for the 4th time they have come for mediation. It has become a routine for them. Asking for astronomical nearly one crore and storming out of the mediation hall. Anyway, I have not responded to their greed and going on fighting DV and FIR. The mediator last time told me that the divorce petition filed by me has to be withdrawn and converted to 13b.
My greatest fear here, is after I withdraw the 13(1)(ia) and after receiving some money, if they backtrack, will I have to begin from the beginning? I filed in 2016 and if I have to contest again I will be going backwards by another three years? My wife and party are eyeing even my parents property if not now at least on a later date. It looks like she has no intention of getting married again and so now their main aim is money and revenge. They are so shameless and can stoop to any level to secure this aim.
OR
is their any alternate way to deal with the situation? Can something be done without withdrawing the divorce petition? My lawyer, and it looks like her lawyer are eager to close it down.
At any cost I don’t want to go back to where I began. I am even ready to fight . So kindly advise what are my options in case the mediation gets through.
One more question. Is the husbands salary or let us say income the only yardstick to decide alimony? I mean permanent alimony in case I opt to fight it to finish? Kindly guide. The mediation, I should say, the 4 th one is to be held tomorrow. I need as. Many opinions as possible. Please.
