What should be your stand would depend upon what you want. It is only for you to decide whether you want to give a chance to your marriage or stick to your divorce petition. Nobody else can tell you as you only know your wife better and also how much strong evidence you have to get divorce. If you do not mind living with your wife for the sake of your 2 yr old kid, then  do give your marriage a chance after assessing the whole situation.

mam,
1. wife is just after money either monthly or lumpsum...thats the reason they have barged into the flat......they filed cases to prove court its me who deserted,

2. they failed as in my say i never objected for co hab but only at my ancestral house,which they do not want, they just wanna feast on my hard earned money and property, they are 3 sisters all married and following the same technique of filing cases and NCs and harassing huabands and inlaws in lieu of money,

3. please guide what stand to take, she wont come for co hab thats sure so what should i be doing ???????.....pay lifelong undivorced  and curse my destiny or continue with rcr filed by her and wait till they succumb????????

Dear Querist

if you have any strong proof against her then fight the case on merit otherwise forget justice and accept her demand.

Adv Archana has asked a very pertinent question. Know the target and pursue it. One step forward, two steps backward is a recipe for disaster.

If you don't fight for what you want, don't cry for what you LOST.

As fresh grounds have arisen after she filed RCR, contest her RCR by filing a counter seeking divorce on old grounds along with fresh grounds (one more desertion). You have to pay alimony whether you are married to her divorced.  Hence through MCD if she is expecting you to pay maintenance for lifelong it may not be a true assumption.  She might get married.  If she marries, you will not have to pay maintenance to her anymore.  So if you accept MCD then you will have to pay maintenance to her only till her marriage with some other person.

thanks experts,

i did the same,
1. i filed counter in rcr saying she deserted one more time and i am still ready for co habitation but its she who repeatedly deserts.....why divorce should not be granted?????
2.divorce grounds were desertion and mental cruelty, even if husband took her back for cohabitation, condoning cruelty as a ground , the wife deserted again which again proves deaertion and mental cruelity as a ground......
3. she filed sec24 for interim in divorce court, is it possible to withold divorce proceedings till rcr disposal prolonging her sec 24 proceedings??????????
4. 125crpc filed in family court with rcr which is at cross examination stage..........

Anjuru Chandra Sekhar (Advocate )     30 June 2013

Who told you to say "I am still ready for cohabitation"? :)   That is redundant.  If you want divorce mention grounds for it.  Do not add mashala, feelings etc.

Anjuru Chandra Sekhar (Advocate )     30 June 2013

In RCR petition filed by wife is husband says I am ready for cohabitation, judge will happily grant decree in her favor.

Anjuru Chandra Sekhar (Advocate )     30 June 2013

You should not condone.  That is another pitfall in your pleadings.  And note that if RCR and Divorce are in two different courts you can ask for clubbing of both the cases and hearing together of both cases in one court.

1.condoning previous acts of cruelty and still ready for co habitation would get decree of rcr in favour of wife......thats right...
2. wife has barged into mil flat and wants husband to co hab in that flat close to her moms place just 10min walkn distance.......the flat was husbands who gifted to his mother just before cases were filed .......wife and in laws have an eye on that flat .......if husband joins dv would defin be filed in few months and right to residence till years and years of trail would follow.....favouring wife.......
3. husband stays in village 50km away from the above flat and wants wife to join him there......he doesnt mind rcr decree favoring wife as he filed divorce on desertion and wife contests saying its husband who deserted and wants maintenance for survival......

4. so even if husbands divorce gets dismissed......because of condonation of cruelty, wont desertion still remain a ground for divorce as he knows that she wont come out of the above mentioned flat as she wants it in her name ...........rcr by her backfired as she was under impression that husband would not agree for cohab........

5. my point here is if wife doesnt not follow rcr decree and goes with husband........wont it be a case of coming to court with unclean hands as inspite of all drama husbands showing interest of cohab for the sake of small 2yr kid and wife adamant in reunion????????

6. if she goes, flat automatically gets posessed by husbands mother ......she can sell, rent etc.........that is what wife doesnt want......money minded female.....ready for mcd, but again wants the same flat and money too
