Section 19 in The Family Courts Act, 1984


05-Dec-2024 (In Family Law)
Para (3) Every appeal under this section shall be preferred within a period of thirty days from the date of the judgment or order of a Family Court. It clearly says that an order passed in family court should be appealed within 30 days. Is that true for an ex parte divorce decree also that is passed by Family Court, Dwarka. Can someone knowledgeable check on this and confirm. Is it 30 days or 90 days. ? When can the person marry ?

Hi there! You should check with the Court's nazir/ ahlmad as to when the taamil of ex parte decree was duly executed and served upon your ex spouse. You count the limitation period from that date for the time to file his appeal to be exhausted. Meanwhile, you need to file a Caveat in the Hon'ble High Court regarding the same. Only after you comply with all necessary prerequisites, you will be free to remarry. Hire a good Advocate of your choosing for the same. Good luck!
