Divorce on ground of mental illness and cheating
01-Jun-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I got married in Jan 2004. Immediately after marriage (3months) my mother had got kidney failure and making this a ground my wife went back to her parents. After giving birth to my son in 2005 she stayed with her parents only. After pressure from her family and other relatives she came back and stayed for 6 months with us and then again over a normal heated discussion she went back. This coming & going started on regular basis. One day we found that she started getting violent and hurting herself. On the advice of our family Dr we took her to psychiatrist and then we came to know that she is suffering from mental illness and she had attempted for sucide before getting married to me. Her family had forced her to get marry with me. I started her treatment and now recently I came to know that she was in regular contact with her boyfriend & is still in touch with him to whom she was supposed to get marry. After getting caught she threatened for sucide. What legal remedy I can get ?
In this case which is in itself a very rare case, you need to apply to the court for nullity of your marriage or divorce. either which way, now that you have a son, his right in your property/properties and surname would stay intact irrespectove of whether you get a divorce or not. You need to start by initiating a dialogue to that effect preferably via legal notice
