Dear Sir/Ma'am.... I want divorce from my wife. It's been 5 months to our marriage and I have no marriage certififcate. . They are greedy and taking undue advantage of us (Money minded people). They spent total 4 lacs in marriage (total amount is 4 lacs as decided earlier for marriage out of which they gave 2 lacs to us for some marriage expense n we have proof of it-their handwritten slip of things they wanted in their 2 lacs). My question is how much money they can demand from us as per the given situation and details. Please help us out. And if they demand from us, how can we tackle that situation.

Hello. the only problem with you is your marriage time,which would b according to court is very less. And court consider petition only after a year of marriage except in some exceptional situations. You can lodge a complaint against them to your nearest police station which will also help in court proceedings .. and if you can make your spouse agree for mutual divorce that will b take less litigation time and cost.thank you.

Good evening Mr. Well dowry is punishable offence in the eye of law but as a gift article you can show them and now most important thing is court never suggest or order you to make any kind of amount this is your personal decision but you can exhibit it if done by both of you with mutual consent but at least one year time period of marriage is must to take divorce by any one. But in special case with solid excuse with proof you can file challanging divorce to your spouse.
