It is the duty of him to take with him as per order of Restitution of Conjugal Rights, you can email to him to join as per order of family court to take help from your parents and you can join his house i.e., your matrimonial home immediately alongwith your daughter.

Hello madam no need to get tensed whether you contested the case filed by ur husband in restitution of conjugal rights? Nature of disposal contested allowed means restitution of conjugal rights filed by your husband is allowed so you read the judgement 1st there shall be some directions to both of you..and it is enough that u mailed to ur husband saying that ur ready to rejoin if he doesn't reply means you just go and file recall the order and tell to the court about all the new developments what is happening exactly. Thank you

No tense, please. Be relaxed. Things will turn in your favour. Issue a legal notice to your husband and intimation to concerned Embassy about the Court order (certified copy to be enclosed) and express your intention to join your husband. Approach the Court also and submit the same before the Court and ask it to issue a notice to your husband to take you. More in person.

if matter is not settled in the mediation she may choose defend the same and may continue litigating.

Dear Client,

Once the notice will be issued by the family Court or by any other Court in the form of summon. Then it will be always be the duty of the person against whom the notice is issued to appear before the Hon'ble Court concerned either personally or through a legal representative. In case if the notice found deemed served to you the court will then proceed ex-parte that is without recording your presence.

Non appearance in any case Registered against you,in which notices have been served upon you definitively effect your case. It is better to appear in the aforesaid proceedings and if this is not possible in any circumstances then you can move a transfer application under Section 24 of c.p.c.If you will file a transfer application with good grounds then there is every probability that proceedings of Section 9 of H.MA may be stayed by Honble High court.

So if you want to give a chance for saving marriage, you can file for restitution of conjugal rights and try or even try to talk to him and settle the issues before even going to court.

Nobody can influence the family court and if any adverse order is passed then you can go to High Court.

The abandoned spouse/partner will have to issue a legal notice through a competent advocate asking the other spouse to return or else he/she will be bound to initiate legal proceedings to enforce the rights for restitution. (For example : if marriage was under HMA then under section 9)

The abandoned partner (petitioner) will file the restitution suit in the district court. Later the petitioner assigns the case to the Hon’ble High Court.

Both the parties shall be present before the court on their given dates.

Both the parties will be sent to a ‘counseling gathering’ by the court.

Finally, the court shall pass a decree based on the description given by both parties.
