Dear Sir, Thanks for your reply but it would be nice if you please explain me what you mean by dismissed. Sorry to mention I am not very clear whether the case will be cancelled or divorce will be granted???

Dear Mam,

If only one party appears before the court and other party is not present then the present party can take the next date. The court can give you a another date, in the meanwhile you can talk to other party or write a letter for his/her non-appearance or also can remind the other party for next date. You can take next date til 18 months from the date of filing the first motion. Every attempt should be made to resolve the dispute amicably.
