Divorce case- Evidence stage pending state


21-Oct-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, I got married 3 years ago and filed for divorce on basis of mental cruelty as wife was not ready to have kids. And she is working woman. nAfter 6 months of filing petition I had to travel abroad and next week it will become failed mediation as we did not reach settlement amount. I will not be able to travel to India for 1 year from today. Can I keep the evidence stage as pending until then?

Dear Sir,
You may seek permission of the Court by filing interim application, if rejected you may approach High Court and get a stay on the trial Court proceedings thus in this development you will get one year time. Please approach such Advocate who will understand your difficulty and agree to put all these bonafide efforts.

The court may place you exparte and proceed with the case if you don't represent the case. it is better to engage a lawyer in your absence so that the case is represented by lawyer in your absence. Also you can give your power attorney to someone to represent you in your absence even though you may be required be there for important stages
