SEvery junior advocate has gone through this before. Filing a case is a very time consuming and tedious process.
What we learn in college is useless compared to what’s practiced in courts. This is why it’s compulsory in almost all colleges for students to do a minimum number of internships during the course as a course requirement.
SI feel you’re not right in the head. You caught your wife cheating. Some dude threatened to kill you, and you want to send a legal notice? Wtf is a legal notice supposed to do when someone threatens to kill you?SSeconded. Everyone’s so engrossed in trying to find a legal way for this even before trying to sort things out in other ways. People don’t seem to understand how draining it is to involve yourself in a case.Also OP, no one in the sub is gonna be representing you in court. So asking us to be considerate while quoting fees doesn’t make sense. Each lawyer charges differently. Some are good. Some are shit. Some overcharge. Some undercharge. The fees you pay depend on what kind of lawyer you intend to hire.
SYes right. I didn’t clarify this part when posting the comment. By “you” I meant to say the victim. Which is the uncle. Thanks for clarifying.SNothing can be done legally. The college is not legally obligated to give you a month’s holiday after semester exams. It’s just a usual practice. I’ve had 15-20 day vacations in between semesters before when I was a student.SWhy have you not initiated divorce proceedings? Why are you still married to him?Why did you not have the police register an FIR and only file a complaint?
Well coming to point, yes. You can file a defamation case. But proving the damages will be hard.
SThere are a few things to note.No fundamental rules are absolute. Especially freedom of speech. For example, you can’t defame someone and say that you’re protected by the freedom to say whatever you want. Fundamental rules give you the right to do whatever business anywhere in india but doesn’t mean that you can violate trademark and copyright laws during your business or that you can sell drugs as a business. All laws have a limit.
Laws are not black and white. There is a huge grey area which is known as interpretation which is the most important part of the legal system. Especially in a country like India where people shit about “morality, ethics, tradition, culture and religion”, people can interpret anything as anything they want.
What you’re saying is right. What they said is not illegal. A joke in bad taste perhaps. But because people got offended by it, they’re twisting it to be something it’s not by calling it “obscene acts in public” and what not, which are crimes as per the penal code.
Well honestly I don’t think it’s something worth punishing someone over. My personal opinion is that the current ruling party uses religion, culture and tradition, and people’s pride towards it as their tactic to win. And what beerbiceps said is in a way brings down the “purity” of the religion, idk how to explain it. So the ruling party is using it as an excuse to create a controversy which brings people (their biggest vote bank) together.
At the end of the day it’s all politics. Politics is a dirty game and politicians are hypocrites. There are so many videos of politicians out there calling someone “MC” or “bkl” or “MKC” which I believe also brings down the “purity” of the religion they belong to. However no one bats an eye as people are hypocrites.
Yeah and no doubt the judges are involved in the politics as well because political backing is very important if you want to become a HC or SC judge or CJ.
SAnd how effective are these laws? Having laws are useless if the enforcement is not up to standard.SThe court will accept it. The amount is for the court to decide.Why tf are everyone obsessing over alimony all of a sudden? Alimony has been a part of Indian law for as long as I can remember. Stop obsessing over it. I understand that Subhash suicide case has highlighted this.
If only people took so much effort to protest and highlight dowry deaths, and domestic violence then india would be so much better.
SThe dad and mom will have 50% share each in the property. After the death of the father, the dad’s 50% will be split equally between the wife and two sons. So basically the ownership will be 16.6% each for both sons and the mother with 66.6% ownership.The mother can only sell the percentage owned by her. The rest can’t be touched. The sons can oppose the sale if the property is undivided.
If the mother tries to sell the entire property or forges any documents and transfers to herself the husband’s 50%, you can file an injunction to temporarily halt the sale and file a case for forgery.
If you do file a case, realistically speaking it’s really hard to proceed with the sale. Land disputes go on for decades. Considering the sons are over 50, the mother would definitely be above 70. The property would not be sold in her lifetime.
You can also plead to the court saying that the mother is not competent to sign the contract.
If there is a will saying that the father wishes to transfer his share in the ownership to the mother upon his death, you can’t do anything. Assuming of course the document is legit.
SYou’re not the one who hired the lawyer. You’re not the one who should pay him. The bank will pay him and debit the money from your account. Don’t pay a single rupee from your pocket.SThis is legal advice india. He doesn’t need your judgement. If you can’t answer his queries, then don’t comment.
