Reading: My husband left me after four months of marriage, demanding more dowry and harassing us with his family. I pleaded with him, but he refused to take me back. After another four months, he called, but I insisted on his promise to never harm me again before I would return. He agreed but delayed, eventually filing for judicial separation and an injunction, alleging false accusations like wanting him to live with us and assaulting him and his mother. I have proof of their dowry demands and harassment. Can I file for a dowry case and divorce, and will I be entitled to alimony considering my distance MBA?

You can file a dowry case and divorce based on your husband’s harassment and dowry demands. Your proof will strengthen your case. You are likely entitled to alimony based on your MBA and the circumstances of your marriage, but the court will consider your husband’s financial situation and your ability to earn.
