Hello,
As you said DVC case is pending before the magistrate court and you want to stay with your husband without interference from your in-laws, you can seek right to stay in your matrimonial home from the court . Ask your lawyer to file a petition under Section 17 of the DV Act to secure this relief. Section 17 of the domestic violence act says that every woman in a domestic relationship shall have the right to reside in the shared household, whether or not she has any right, title or beneficial interest in the same. Therefore, you have the right to reside in the shared house hold wherein you are living in a domestic relationship. For the claim of residence relief, it is necessary for you to prove that you are living with your husband in a shared house hold. According to section 2(s) shared house hold means a household where the person aggrieved lives or at any stage has lived in a domestic relationship either singly or along with the respondent and includes such a household whether owned or tenanted either jointly by the aggrieved person and the respondent, or owned or tenanted by either of them in respect of which either the aggrieved person or the respondent or both jointly or singly have any right, title, interest or equity and includes such a household which may belong to the joint family of which the respondent is a member, irrespective of whether the respondent or the aggrieved person has any right, title or interest in the shared household. However, you can claim residence order only against the shared house hold owned by your husband, rent by your husband or house of joint family property of which your husband is a member.
