My wife and I got married in 2004 under the Special Marriage Act, keeping it a secret from both our families. We lived separately until 2007, when we had a small ceremony and she moved in with my parents. Her family didn’t attend and basically disowned her. Later, in 2010, she got a government flat and we started living there. Now, in 2014, she filed a police complaint against me under sections 498A, 406, and 34, after I initiated divorce proceedings and moved out. Can section 406 be applied in a court marriage?

I’m a GNM nurse from a village near Bangalore, and I wanted to pursue a BSc Nursing degree from Laxmidevi Nursing Institute in Hoskote. I trusted an agent to help me with the admission process and submitted my original certificates as they asked. But due to financial difficulties, I had to withdraw my application in December 2013. However, the college is now refusing to return my original certificates unless I pay two years’ fees, which is around two lakh rupees. I’m desperate to get my certificates back. What legal options do I have?

My call centre job in India is not paying me my salary for the past month. I’ve been with them for almost 3 months now, and my first salary was also delayed. They say they can’t pay me because they’re having trouble with finances and I haven’t met my sales targets. What should I do?

Can you tell me about the rules for getting maternity leave in India? Are these rules the same across the whole country? And is there a minimum number of employees a company needs to have to offer this leave?

Since the Gujarat Land Ceiling Act didn’t allow daughters to inherit ancestral property, and the Hindu Succession Amendment Act of 2005 gave them equal rights, can daughters now claim a share in property under the Land Ceiling Act, similar to sons?

My neighbor worked as a housekeeper for a big brand through a consultancy for four years. She was paid in cash and never received a salary slip. The consultancy deducted PF from her salary but never gave her a PF number. Now she’s left the job and has been trying to get her PF amount for over a year. The consultancy keeps asking her to file a complaint instead of providing her PF number. What can she do?

I’m from Jammu and Kashmir and recently finished my bachelor’s degree. I’m thinking of changing my name, but someone mentioned it could take over two years with a court case. Is this really true?

I was unfairly let go from my job as a Senior Manager, and my employer hasn’t paid me my last two months’ salary. The Labor Inspector, after several meetings, suggested I file a claim under the Delhi Shops and Commercial Establishment Act. Should I only focus on getting my unpaid salary in the Labor Court, or should I also include things like compensation for the unfair termination, unused leave, and the impact of being unemployed?

My father passed away in August 2000, leaving behind around 5 acres of land in Madhya Pradesh. He had two sons, my brother and I, and one daughter (myself). Unfortunately, my brother and his wife also passed away in January 2000, leaving behind three children. My elder brother claims that their daughters have no right to the land. Is this true? My name was included in the land records at the time of transfer. Can he prevent me from claiming my share of the property? I need guidance on this matter.

My husband, who is wealthy, left me for someone else. We have a 2-year-old son. I filed a case against him, and now he wants to settle.

Is there a way for my son and me to claim a share of his inherited wealth under Indian law?

My father recently passed away, leaving all his property to our mother. We are two brothers, and the property is spread across Ghaziabad, Ajmer, and Jamnagar. Do I have a right to a share of the property? Can my mother divide the property unequally between us? If she does, can I challenge her decision?

My neighbor, Mr. X, filed a police complaint against me back in 2013. The case became a court case in June 2016. I’m facing charges under sections 420, 379 of the Indian Penal Code and 66(C)(D) of the IT Act. When I checked online court records, I couldn’t find any mention of the case being a “State vs. me” case. The complainant is still listed as Mr. X. Is it possible for me to approach Mr. X and try to settle this matter amicably? Can I request him to withdraw the charges? Would the state intervene in this process, or would they allow the case to be settled if Mr. X agrees to a resolution involving damages?

I’ve been working at a transport company for the last four months, on probation. I’m not happy with my job and gave my boss a seven-day notice period, as my contract states. Now, they won’t accept my resignation and are trying to blame me for things I didn’t do. They want me to get confirmation from customers about outstanding payments that aren’t my responsibility. What can I do in this situation?

My father, an ex-army man, has been harsh towards me and my mother since I was a kid. He hasn’t shown love or care, and his actions have been hurtful. Now, I’m trying to escape this situation, but he threatens to harm my mother if I leave. I’ve faced pain in the past because of a relationship that didn’t work out. How can I find freedom from this situation?

My mother was brutally attacked last Monday by Sashikala Roy, wife of Subhas Roy, and their son Biswarup. She managed to escape, but suffered a serious eye injury that could have been fatal. I witnessed the horrific scene and rushed her to the local Municipal Hospital. We then filed a complaint with the Sonarpur Police Station (FIR no. 2040, GD no. 523, dated 05.09.2016) in the presence of IC Paresh Chandra Roy. Why was the attacker granted bail despite the severity of the crime?
