I separated from my ex-husband through a mutual divorce agreement signed on stamp paper and witnessed by a notary. Soon after, I remarried. However, six months into my second marriage, I received a legal separation decree from my first marriage, with my current husband’s consent. Now, my husband has filed a case against me, alleging that our marriage is invalid. I’m deeply worried and need guidance on how to handle this difficult situation.

Based on your situation, it appears your first marriage was not legally dissolved when you remarried. The mutual divorce agreement signed on stamp paper and witnessed by a notary does not constitute a valid divorce under Indian law. Your current husband’s case alleging the invalidity of your second marriage may hold ground. It’s crucial to seek legal counsel immediately to understand your rights and options for defending your marriage.
