residence order in dv act

yes , she can claim unless she has not voluntarily given up this right in agreement for MCD.

is there any rental income/ncome potential? ANY PROOFS OF INCOME GENERATED FROM THIs property?

nothing is detailed in MCD. Yes there is scope of rental income, a very good rental income a the property is in a posh area of metro. But deliberately the ex wife is not using it for rental purpose and showing it as not livable in order to grab other property of ex husband and secure maintenance.

If wife has got independent income then she cannot claiim maintenance.  She is a divorcee she cannot file a case under the DV act.

Agree with advocate rajeev.

Thanx to all.

But situation is that she has been continuosly visiting/staying in the same house on the pretext of visiing aking care of daughter. my freind keeping in view the welfare of daughter never objected to it. so much so that when his daughter requested to give some amount monthly for the various expenditure, he gave it happily, daughter had requested to issue cheque in the name of mother as she was not having the account, he did that also. for more that last 6 months his ex-wife was continously living in the same house and now slapped the case of DV with the sole purpose of grabbing the property.

I would like to know specifically that if any divorced women has a property of her own and not using it purposely for living or earning income out of it, is she entitle for any RESIDENCE ORDER or maintenance under DV act.

Mutual consent divorce was as per hindu law under section 125 Cr Pc.

divorced wife cannot file dv on husband, daughter can.

@ Avnish,

How a daughter (that also major) can file DV against her father !

Under Dv act.

(a) "aggrieved person" means any woman who is, or has been, in a domestic relationship with the respondent and who alleges to have been subjected to any act of domestic violence by the respondent;

(0 "domestic relationship" means a relationship between two persons who live or have, at any point of lime, lived together in a shared household, when they are related by consanguinity, marriage, or through a relationship with the nature of marriage, adoption or are family members living together as a joint family;

Yah yah, now after errant wife's it is going to be turn of major age daughters coaxed by ex and or soon to be ex mothers to file DV on her fathers'...........

Bilkul pefect family harmony breaking Act yeh hai.....

Ok I take back my que. asked to Avnish.

Daughter is Co-applicant with Mother.

Hello!

Name of divorced wife from petitioner list has to be challanged.

DV act order requires 3 things:

1) Domestic relationship: U can find holes if there existed no deomestic relationship with her. Justice Dhingra of Delhi HC has nicely explained meaning of domestic relationship, u can easily find that judgment.

2) Shared household: See if there is some escape for u in the story. Againn the above judgment helps. Taruna Batra case of SC may also help. See if ur story falls near that judgment

3) Occurance of Domestic Violence: Fight that Domestic Violence is not proved by litigant

One thing more: Some judgments are there that DV Act has no retrospective effect.

wish u all the best

Thank you very much goslbar and other member concerned too.

One spec ific thing remains to be clarified. I again repeat.

Is a woman having a property of her own entitle for residence order under DV act.

Yes of course. She may be having property in a distant place, away from her shared household (at boys city). It wont be of any use for her as act allows her to live at that very house which she shared with her partner & at which Domestic Violence was done.

Thats why this act has become to obtain property more that anything else!
