Under Indian law, your husband will be served with the divorce petition within a reasonable timeframe. The exact time depends on various factors like his location, service method used, and court workload. Typically, it can take a few weeks to a few months.

Previous Article My grandfather, who owned a property along with his siblings, left it to his three sons. He divided his share between two of his sons, while the other share was given to a different son. Before his passing in 1961, he declared a partition of the property. My father, one of the two sons who received a share, sold part of his inheritance to his two sons to repay his debts. He relied heavily on agricultural income but faced financial difficulties and accumulated loans. One of my uncles has now filed a lawsuit claiming the property is ancestral and the sale was invalid. The sale took place in 2003, and he initially filed a case in 2008 that was unsuccessful. He then filed a new lawsuit in 2010. I need advice on our legal standing in this matter.
