Yes, you can file for divorce even while a domestic violence case is pending. These are separate legal proceedings, and one does not preclude the other. However, the court may consider the domestic violence case while deciding the divorce.

My husband and I got married in 2002. He’s always taken care of our child’s education and daily expenses, especially since they were young, because he had a low income.

My wife and I got married last year, but her family disapproved because we’re from different castes. After a year, her father offered us jobs and asked us to come home. She went, but her family pressured her into filing a dowry and domestic violence case against me.

I promised a girl and her family I wouldn’t marry her, but they insisted. I tried to back out, but she said everything would be fine after the wedding. Feeling pressured, I told them I’d marry someone else if they didn’t stop. Later, a friend helped me get married at an Arya Samaj temple, but the girl said the marriage wasn’t valid without registration. She left and we haven’t spoken since. What should I do?
