Legal steps against husband and wife, after mutual consent divorce


04-Feb-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, I and my wife have filed petition for mutual consent divorce (Hindu Marriage Act), and are already done with first motion. We will be filing for second motion soon. As my wife's parents are against this divorce, and are threatening to file false legal case against us (on which grounds, we don't know) if we file for divorce. Because of this fear, We have not informed them about our divorce petition. I wanted to ask, is there any possibility of any legal case against us after the divorce has been granted. Considering, my wife's father can go to any extent when he will get to know about our divorce. Addition info: I'm from Lucknow, my wife's father live in Allahabad. We got married in Allahabad. After marriage, I and my wife lived in Delhi. As last residing address as a couple was Delhi, our second motion for divorce is with Delhi court.

no one can levy any charges against you if your wife doesn't want to. Don't worry about your father in law. File for second motion with an application for the waiver of cooling period so you could get your divorce done as soon as possible. Once divorce done no body can't do anything and you will be all free

once the mutual concent divorce petition is decreed by Court. the girl and his family members cannot file cases against each other. you should go for second motion and obtain the divorce decree. only girl /wife has right to file cases against husband not other relationships
