Cruelty to desertion possible ?

since it is difficult to prove cruelty in short marriage, can desertion (applied only on the groud of cruelty earlier) be added when the divorce case  is in cross examination stage in family court?

hi,

 

Yes, desertion can be added as a ground of cruelty but in corss examination stage to add the same, you have to file an interim petiotion to amend the main petition.

File an application in the Hon'ble court for changing the grounds, The court may allow the same, if the other party does not objects or you make a proper representation. But please note that you need to show a continued desertion of 3 years, other wise this ground will fall.

thanks.

 

Is that 3 years or 2 years ?

also 3 or 2 years of desertion before the divorce petition is applied?
