We signed settlement agreement, now what?

Make sure the cases are dismissed and then pay her 5 lakhs.

The MOU should be clearly written. Check LCI for many examples. Yes 6 months waiting period is needed.

What did your advocate say?

Thanks for the response! My advocate is not very supportive (he is constantly giving false info). 

The case has been settled in mediation and the judge is waiting for mediation report. 

In this report, it has been mentioned that both the parties have to withdraw their case. 

Mutually settlement of 5 lakhs which I should give as DD on 25th of this month. 

My question is: On 25th I will get the ORDER copy, and so I was thinking that can we use ORDER copy to withdraw or dismiss all the other cases (like 498a, domestic violence, execution, etc)?

Generally people will give partial payment on first day of hearing if the case is MCD.

Then get the cases quashed.

After 6 months after the Court has awarded DIVORCE DECREE then the second payment will be given.

Please go through LCI there are lot of answers and a download of mutual consent is available.

In the document it will be written like this...

2                 The Petitioners No-1 state that he is ready to give the Petitioner No-2 as per the agreed terms between them that is Petitioner No-2 will not claim any amount of maintenance herself and they have mutually decided not to make any other claims against each other in future. The Petitioner No-1 states and submits that she will receive all her clothes, ornaments, Jewellery, Vessels, belonging and other articles and things which was givenj by her parents, relatives and friends within the period of two months and before getting divorce by the Hon’ble Court.

Thanks for the response.

Should she withdraw all the cases before settlement or after settlement?

In the agreement I have it has been mentioned what you have stated above. There is NO case number in this agreement which has been submitted by mediator to the court.

I am confused about what to do next. Tomorrow I am have to attend court and the case status is "awaits for reports"

We have been separated for 5 years, so 6 month of waiting period should not be there, right? 

The waiting period cannot be waived off....irrespective of how long you both are already seprated.take sure ask ur lawyer to prepare a mou mentioning each and every clause clearly. Go to the criminal Court and have the cases withdrawal and immediately go for MCD
