If she does not appear, the case will be decided ex-parte in your favour.

If she appears, she can challenge the foreign divorce decree on three grounds: 1.  She has not submitted to the foreign court and it is an ex-parte decree.  2.  She was not in a position to stay and fight the case abroad. 3.  The grounds on which the foreign divorce deccree is granted, i.e., irretrivable break down of marriage, is not a ground available under Indian law.  If she succeeds on any one of the grounds, then you have to file a case here and get a decree after proving your contentions before the court.

The Decree passed in USA in yourcase is absolutely valid because yourwife filed DV and moved to INdia, but you should not have filed execution in India

If she wouldhvchallenged it them it would hvbeen different case

 

Nowthat you hv filed execution, serve her properly andthen f shedoes not appear seek exparte orde for proceedng

If I try to register my second marriage in registrar office, would that foreign divorce decree be accepted? If refused, what is the option?
