Son in law filing divorce in USA can we file case in India?


24-Dec-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My daughter and son in law are in USA. They were in India in 2011, registered in Bangalore. Now my son in law has given a divorce notice to daughter in USA. Whether can we simultaneously file a case in India and get son in law to come to India? Does my daughter need to visit India and file a case here? Can she contest the case in USA?

They can file a divorce petition in USA provided they have got green card. If not they can file a divorce petition before the jurisdictional family court in India. Yes, your daughter's presence is need at the time of filing a divorce petition in India.
