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?

In India, a fast-track trial can be requested at the start of a divorce case if there are compelling reasons, but the court has the discretion to grant it. Regarding witnesses, you can apply to the court to compel someone to testify if their evidence is crucial to your case. The court will consider the application based on the relevance of the witness’s testimony.
