Court marriage

A girl want to marry a divorcy. Divorcy had a male child which is infant and with mother (ex wife). There is no any court order regarding custody or maintenance, except the disposal of the case by supreme court. What precaution the girl should take before marriage?

Is it possible to do court marriage before actual marriage? A lawer says that if both from the same caste the court marriage is not possible, only it can be registered after performing the marriage within one year. Is it true?

Sir, I think you have misunderstood my question. Divorse case is already disposed. My questions are :

1. What precausions?

2. Why court marriage should not be before the ceremonial marriage?

Hello sir,

If the divorce decree is passed, than the divorcee can remarry. She can marry under the special marriage Act, for which one months notice is to be given in the sub-registrar office, whithin whose jurisdiction ur residing. And after expiry of 30 days of notice to marriage u can register marriage. the marriage can be registered within 3 months from the date of notice to marriage. 

And its not the case that if u r of u caste u cannot marry u/spl. Marr. Act. There are 2 option to u, either u can marry according to ur customs and than register the marriage, or u can marry u/SMA as per above mantioned procedure.
