Frequently Asked Questions
Mutual consent divorce under Section 13-B HMA takes a minimum of 6 months from the first motion petition at Prayagraj Family Court (the 6-month cooling-off period can be waived by the Supreme Court in genuine cases). Contested divorce typically takes 2–5 years depending on the complexity and cooperation of parties. These are general estimates — actual timelines vary based on case-specific factors.
Under the Guardians and Wards Act 1890 and personal laws, courts decide custody based on the "best interests of the child." Factors considered include the child's age, health, educational needs, primary caregiver history, stability of the home environment, and, where appropriate, the child's own preferences. Courts generally favour continuity and stability for the child. Each case is decided on its specific facts.
A wife can claim maintenance under multiple legal provisions: Section 125 CrPC (before any Magistrate, applicable to all religions), Section 24/25 Hindu Marriage Act (for Hindu marriages), and Section 12 Domestic Violence Act (which also covers residence rights). Courts consider the husband's income and means, the wife's own means and needs, and the standard of living during the marriage. The amount is decided by the court on the facts of each case.
Yes. Under the Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act 1939, a Muslim woman can file for Khula (judicial divorce) on grounds including cruelty, desertion, inability to maintain, or husband's imprisonment for 7+ years. She does not require her husband's consent. Separately, the instant triple talaq by the husband has been criminalised under the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act 2019. Consult a family law advocate for advice specific to your situation.
