Pre-Trial Reconciliation Proceedings


There is a wonderful concept of pre-trial reconciliation proceedings in Family Suits. As the name suggests it means reconciliation proceeding before the Trial. The benefit of this kind of proceeding is to end up the dispute before the trial if possible.

More than half of the family suits end up at this stage. The reason is that the judges, lawyers and parties try to end up the dispute at this stage if possible. This stage comes up after the filing of written statement by the defendant.

If reconciliation fail at this stage, the Family Court is bound to frame issue or decree the suit depending upon circumstances. A Family Judge is empowered to adjourn the matter to a future date if he/she sees any room for reconciliation at this stage.

Rule that no limitation ran against a void order was not an inflexible rule --- Party could not sleep over to challenge a void order and it was bound to challenge the same within the stipulated/Prescribed time period of limitation from the date of knowledge before the proper forum in appropriate proceedings --- Appeal filed before the Appellate Tribunal was admittedly time-barred, and was rightly dismissed as being hit by limitation and no sufficient cause for condonation of delay was found --- High Court agreed with the order of Appellate Tribunal --- Supreme Court had affirmed concurrent findings recorded by fora below --- Review petition was dismissed in circumstances.

Divorce is not possible during pregnancy

A Muslim woman cannot be divorced during pregnancy. If a husband pronounces divorce to his wife during pregnancy, it is immaterial till delivery. However, if after delivery of child, it is not reconciled within 90 days, it becomes divorce. The reason is that the Iddah of a Muslim woman is 90 days after pronouncement of divorce by the husband. If divorce is pronounced to a Muslim wife during pregnancy, it becomes effective automatically after the end of pregnancy. The iddat of such lady starts from that day and if the divorce is not revoked in such time period of 90 days, then it becomes complete divorce. Once a women completes her Iddat after divorce, it means the divorce is final and irrevocable between parties. For  more , you can consult omara.khan789@gmail.com or call +923123450006
