dear experts,

I filed for divorce on 18th July, 2014 since my wife deserted me a year back and also made false allegations for domestic violence and dowry against me and my parents, I replied her on top of her allegations sometime in mid May-14 and asked her to prove all her baseless allegations at the same time I requested her to come back... ready to forget all differences happened in the past but she doesn't seem to be interested to cotinue the scared relationship of marriage, finally after waiting for her I filed for divorce on 18th July 2014 the first hearing was scheduled today on 7h October 2014 but my petition was in noticce unready stage.

When my name was called by judge I was there but my wife was not there, I marked my presence by putting my attendance in the file kept by clerk...I aked the clerk about the status she said that my wife hasn't even submitted her reply in court..the judge after calling my name gave 17th November 2014 as the next date of hearing..I want to know did the court notice reached her asking her to be present in court also what is the meaning of Notice Unready and how much time it takes to be in Notice ready stage..Pls guide

thanks,

ashish

Firstly, have you engaged an advocate to conduct your case, if yes, did you clarify the issue from him, if not, contact him and clarify the issue, he will be the better person to explain you the status as per the circumstance of the case. In my opinion, the notice sent to her has not been confirmed receipt hence the court has adjourned the mater to another day awaiting confirmation of service of summon/notice to her. If you are not able to contact your advocate, you may enquire this issue from the concerned court office itself by personally visiting it on any working day.
