Speedy disposal of divorce case on the basis of disability

I have been seperated since two years and 1 year 3 months since divorce was filed, still now the case is stuck at mediation level as he is not ready to get divorced and threatens he will extend this as much as he can, As i have locomotor disability and a UDID card, can i file for a speedy disposal in high court, Is that a good option?

Ask through your advocate what is his demand for divorce. Why are you waisting time in HC, it will take more of your time and energy to get your matter listed in HC. Try for mutual consent divorce and get seperated. You cannot use sympathy card like locomotor disability and a UDID card for speedy disposal in high court. Try to see that you get seperated mutually. Dont ask any money from him.

Since he is not ready for mutual divorce, i have to suffer like this, i never demanded money from him, but still he is not ready to leave me and tries to extend the case by not recieving the notice, not attending for first two sessions of everything like counselling, counter filing etc. Hope u understood the situation he is making the situation worse by intentionally not giving divorce

Yes, in the given facts, moving the High Court may town out to be a distraction than expediting the process.

Ok sir, Thankyou.

Is there any other ways you could recomend for the speedy disposal in this case? I have already filed divorce case and Domestic Violence case

You can inform the mediator that since he is neither inclined to amicably settle or reconcile neither he is willing to give consent for mutual consent divorce, the case to be reverted to regular court where you can get the case expedited.

High court may not be able to provide any respite.

Really saddening  situation,however involving elders and social connections through mediation is often the best way to resolve these matters amicably.

However you can approach to high court in given situation and plead speedy disposal upon your health conditions. High courts often consider such aspects on humanitarian grounds.

Thankyou all for the guidance

The mediator can not retain the case beyond 3 months, get the case returned to the court for its disposal on merits.

You may move to High Court through your lawyer for issuance of writ of mandamus / neessarry directions to the Trial Court to dispose off the case within a time frame.
