Daughter in law wants to separate and file domestic violence case


07-Jun-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My daughter in law does not like her husband(my son) because he is under employed and does not earn handful. She also does not like her mother in law(my wife) as she feels her mother in law favours more her second daughter in law. She had some wordy exchanges with her co-sister sometimes back. Now she has decided to separate and file domestic violence against all in laws.She wants to take with her 5 year old son(our grandson).How can we defend ourselves? We have not done any violence to her.

in this case the period of living at matrimonial house is important. if marriage period has completed 7 years then there is no dv against all. the daughter in law has to prove the existence of domestic violance. the quash petition is possible

These issues are commonplace nowadays and one has to face it and defend it tirelessly. As far as filing a case is concerned, relevant pleadings supported by some form of acceptable evidence. Your daughter in law must prove her case against you all and that will be your defence.
