30-Jul-2023 (In Divorce Law)
We are Muslim. we got married in May2016. she lives in bangalore and is working in a top company and i am in chennai working here. It created problems initially due to distance,her mom said that she will not come to chennai for you,its foolish leaving such a big company. I got angry and told her that we willl go for a MCD. she recorded that and now is using it for applying divorce,I said it in anger.But i did not mean it. I want to live with her.She has taken all the jewels with her at the time of mrg.She is earning double the salary than me also.Will she get her divorce and claim all the jewels which i gave at the time of mrg and ask for alimony. Please advice

The working women, who s earning a well salary cannot claim maintenance from her husband. In so for as divorce case is concern, you can contest the case on merits and may express your willingness to join with her to lead the marital life. In case, if u willing to give divorce, u can seek to return the articles provided but you to her during the marriage. If u need any further clarification feel free to contact me.

You have to file a restitution petition before the family court chennai and then only you can say before the court your plea and all. But that recording as you stated is not sufficient to get an MCD order from court. Your Signature and Physical Appearance is must to get MCD Order.

No one can give opinion on your fear. First of all you must wait what the other party is going to do. Only after seeing her application you can decide your response. You can always prove before the Court that it was an isolated incident and hence divorce could not be granted.
