If you want to obtain divorce then you will have to file a case in the court. In case both the parties mutually agree upon the terms and conditions of divorce then you can file a joint petition for divorce by mutual consent. If your husband doesn’t agree for divorce or if both of you do it agree upon the same terms and conditions of Divorce then you will have to file a contested divorce petition.

A judicial separation is a legal decree passed by a court to order a husband and wife to live separately or to end their conjugal relations without actually dissolving their marriage. It is sometimes called “divorce mensa et thoro”, that is, separation from ‘bed and board’. After the order of judicial separation, the husband and wife are not obliged to live together or cohabit, and all the basic marital obligations between them are suspended. They are merely separated from each other, consensually, so that they can get time to introspect their matrimonial relations. The agreement of judicial separation ordinarily results in either divorce or reconciliation between husband and wife. Hence, this period of separation acts as a time to review their marriage, and if they are not happy with their marriage, they can put it to an end with an agreement of divorce. As the parties to a separation agreement remain husband and wife, they are not free to remarry. And if they remarry, they can be held liable for the offence of bigamy. If one of the spouses dies during the subsistence of the separation agreement, the other spouse will inherit his/her property. Another condition for a valid judicial separation was that a marriage should also be valid between the parties. The agreement of separation can’t take place in void marriages, but the case may be different if the marriage is voidable.
