Does court provide verdict for divorce, property and custody together


07-Nov-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Married in india. Moved to Australia post marriage. Have one child and a house in Australia. Marriage broke down beyond repair last year. I filed for custody and property matters first and filed for divorce once 12 months completed (requirement in Australia) now my ex is seeking to dismis it on grounds of Hindu marriage act. He wants to take divorce to india. I don’t mind however, I want to ensure the divorce is treated separately from property and child custody. ( in Australia all 3 are diff)

Dear Madam, Always the family decrees if not pronounced unless both the parties present before it then it is invalid decree. Further, as per Indian laws property and child custody cannot be dealt by the Judges who are dealing with Divorce cases.
