Under Indian law, a married person cannot live with another person without their spouse’s consent, even if they are planning to divorce. This is considered adultery and can have legal consequences.

My wife and I are from Jaipur, and we’ve been married for almost a year. I’ve been living separately for the past six months because she threatened to leave me. Whenever we disagree, she threatens to file a case against me. Once, she even tried to get our neighbors involved. Her sister works in the police, and she often threatens to falsely implicate me in a case. I moved out to avoid troubling my family, but she still isn’t behaving well. Now, I want a divorce. What should I do? If she names my family in a case, will the police also harass them, even though I’ve been living separately for six months? Her constant threats and arguments are affecting my work, and I can’t focus. She even threatens to put something in my food. Her brother also threatens me.

My husband and I are going through a divorce, and I’ve filed a case based on cruelty. I want to know: 1. Can I request a fast track trial right at the beginning of the case, even if there haven’t been any unnecessary delays? 2. If someone is refusing to be a witness in my case, can I ask the court to compel them to testify?

My husband got a job in another city six months ago and had to go for a three-month training. He asked me to stay with my parents until his training ended, promising to settle us in the new city later. But now, it’s been much longer and he’s not speaking to me kindly. He constantly brings up past arguments and reminds me about our separation from his family three years ago. He stopped talking to my family six months back and now makes excuses for not taking me to the new city. He says we’re not right for each other anymore. I love him and want to stay with him. I’ve even offered to have his parents live with us, but he keeps focusing on the past and refuses to consider a positive future. What should I do? He’s been mentally tormenting me for months.

How much maintenance can I expect to receive from my husband in India?

I’m a Hindu woman, married in 2001, with two children. I filed a maintenance case against my husband under Section 125 in October 2016. My lawyer isn’t giving me clear answers, so I’m hoping you can help. My husband earns around ₹60,000 a month. How much maintenance can I expect to receive? Also, I’m living with him, so am I even eligible for maintenance? Finally, what steps could my husband take against me, since I don’t want a divorce?

Our bike insurance and the other party’s insurance are both expired. The police have taken our bike into custody. The bike papers are with my dad. Is my dad, the bike owner, also liable in this case? How long will the police keep the bike?
