Domestic violence - Exparte order


15-Oct-2023 (In Domestic Violence Law)
Hi, Due to harrasment and emotional abuse i filed DV against my husband. we lived together oly for 3 months and then got seperated. I have enough proof/evidence with me and submitted in court DV case as well. But they never attended any of the hearings, not even their lawyer. so we are going to file EX-PARTE in upcomming hearing. (Divorce case it about to file in next two months since our marriage ended before 1 year) If so will i get proper remedy through ex-parte order? 1. My belongings were still in my husbands house (its a Joint family, They were not ready to give any of my belongings, even my certificates) 2. Do i get compensation for what we spend for our marriage expenses (70-80% of marriage expense were done from our side)? 3. Whats the timeline it takes to complete? Pls HELP

Good evening.. First thing is EXPARTY ORDER is not a final order mam..there is possible to set aside the EXPARTY order by filling a petition.. But in the view of your submissions clearly shows that your husbend did not want to proceed the process and also you have a remedy to ask maintanance in your DV application
And second one is u should file divorce petition along with maintanance partition to get maintanance claim against your husband.. Because DV is differ from family proceedings..

exparte order is valid. go ahead and file a dowry harassment in your local all women police against all the family members of your husband. police will call them and enquire during which you claim your belongings. file a MC petition in the court and ask for interim prayer for return of articles, certificate etc. file restitution conjugal rights rather than divorce petition
