What I need to say to judge in the court room

Dear sir, it is always advisable to be truthful in the Hon'ble Court of Law, as making a falsified statement could drown you in jeopardy. As far as your case is concerned, without getting an in-depth knowledge, no Advocate can advise you well. However, prima facie, if the lie is caught by the opposite counsel, you may have to face prosecution for perjury if you make that statement on oath. Please note that Advocacy is a noble profession and the Advocate must advise his client to work within the confines of the Law. Good luck though!

The aim of your lawyer is to show cruelty. Its a ground for divorce. How over the judge wont ask this in open court and i wont suggest you too not to speak it publicly. Just mention it in your petition.

If your lawyer advised you to claim that you and your wife have not consummated the marriage (i.e., no sexual relationship), it is likely in the context of seeking a divorce on the grounds of non-consummation or nullity of marriage. Here’s how this might play out and what you should prepare for: 1. Understanding the Implication Claiming non-consummation may be used to argue that the marriage is voidable under specific laws (e.g., due to impotence or refusal to consummate). If this claim is untrue and challenged, you must defend it against evidence your wife may present. 2. Possible Scenarios in Court Cross-Examination: Your wife’s lawyer will question you about the claim. They may ask about intimate details of your relationship to disprove your statement. Evidence by Wife: She may provide evidence, such as messages, medical records, or witness testimony, to establish that sexual relations occurred. Allegations of Falsehood: If your claim is proven false, it can harm your credibility and weaken your case. 3. What to Say Stick to the Truth: If sexual relations occurred, lying in court can lead to legal consequences, including charges of perjury. If your lawyer insists on this strategy but it contradicts the truth, seek a second opinion or clarify why they advise this approach. 4. Recommendation Discuss openly with your lawyer why this argument is being suggested. Ensure your defense aligns with the truth to avoid complications during cross-examination. Consider consulting a different legal expert if this strategy makes you uncomfortable or seems legally risky. Would you like help understanding specific laws related to this scenario?
