Hi Sir, 

My brother is planning to have divorce with his wife having kid (Female - 10 years). He did not took any money from her wife or from there parents during the marriage. After 3 months of marriage, My brother and his wife have some disputes, so they are living separately from last 6 years. Now my brother is vexed and planning to other marriage and start a new life. So he is planning for divorce.

When my brother approaches his wife to discuss divorce, there parents demanding Money(15lakhs) and land (which is on my father's Name) to get registered on Child Name. 

Please confirm, If my brother file a divorce in Family court,  what are the maintainance that my brother should provide to his wife and kid. My brother net salary per month is 50k , after personal loan deductions, he will be holding some 25k per month. he dont have any land on his name.

Dear Concern, firstly no such law permits to to daughter in law to get the money or property from father in laws property. Secondly it need to be determine that yours brothers wife is working lady or not and it is alsi need to be know for the knowledge that how much she is educated..as stated by you tat she is living separatly since last so many years it shows that there must b some source of income she have. If is it so than only minor son can claim the maintainance and court have to see the standarad of ours living style and the welfare of the child..in my opininon court can grant 6 to 10k as maintinance fir child as per the income of your brother. Rest your brother can file a divorce in the court of competent jurisdiction on tbe basis of desertion. Regards Jaspal S Maini(Adv) 9999987283

Daughter in law does not have any right or claim in the property of father in law or in law's property and assets. The quantum of maintenance depend on the earring, his liabilities etc but it may be noted that expenditures on luxuries does not amount to liabilities so in present the maintenance may vary from 12000 to 20000/- per month depending on facts of the case. These days courts are liberal in granting ACB or bail in such matrimonial disputes. Consult a lawyer with details. Siddharth

HI Sharwanand

you have to be afraid of nothing.. you and your brother can go to nellore police station wherever the case is lodged, they will give you station bail after doing counselling to your brother and his wife ...they will try to counsel to get adjusted with each other...its all left to your brother to be with her or not.....

trust me your brother  will get station bail  even though it si 498a case in andra pradesh....i think you might have got it already,

1)  my wife has lodged a 498a, 506 and i have got station bail from kurnool mahila police stattion and i am from karnataka

My brother case was filled but the charge sheet not yet prepared , even police people know its is a fake case, they are asking for settlement , we already spend 8 laksh to get bail from high court. Now we are not ready to settlement becasue we dont have enough money, 

Its almost 5 months charge sheet not prepared , we are planning for Quash petition in high court. 

But can any one tell me how to get chargesheet from station or how to apply Quash without chargesheet , is it possible ?

If Quash applied in High court and if the case got quashed. we know that lawss some times favour to women now a days so if she put fake proofs and open the case , we cannot afford more money for courts.

Please advice the best option so that i can save my family. 

1) Charge sheet not prepared its almost 5 months completed. 

2) If charge sheet prepared when we get to know anout the Court hearing or how to get the charge sheet to file Quash in High court.

3) Heard like only 90 days for investigation , but why this police people took more than 90 days and is it valid ? Can i raise Quash ? some of the my friends said , If the investigation time is more than 90days , the FIR will be quashed. 

My brother wife left my brother 7 yrs back and kept 498A and 307 on completed family and police people also supporting them for settlement money.

ANy one help me to save my family

Whether daughter in law can claim possession of property purchased by her father in law in her name?

 


One argument, of course, could be raised that by purchasing the
property in the names of the wives in the family, the late Chaman Lal was
securing the interest of his own wife, as also the interest of his sons. That
argument even if raised, would also have to be rejected, because nothing
prevented him from then purchasing the property in the name of his wife and
sons, with no mention of the daughters-in-law. The very fact that he chose to
purchase the property in the name of his wife and daughters-in-law, would go
to prove that he actually intended it to be for their benefit.
That being so, it cannot be said in the context of the
circumstances of the present case, that the property was purchased by Chaman
Lal in the name of his wife and daughters-in-law, because they stood in any

fiduciary capacity to him. If that were so, he could have executed any
instrument by way of a family settlement etc. to make any such intention clear
in that regard. That no having been done, the property cannot be said to have
been purchased for the benefit of any other person, other than those in whose
names it was purchased.
