Legal Battle won By Husband (Or his Relatives)

Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife. A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. There are so many laws to protect women and such legal protection should be strictly implemented to but misuse thereof cannot be ruled out.

The Domestic Violence Act, Provisions of Section 498A of IPC and others laws are being abused and misused not only to keep husband in problem but also to arm-twist the in-laws. Many innocent are being dragged into court unscrupulously by daughter-in-law and their families under the allegations of dowry demand, harassment, misappropriation of dowry articles, etc. Likewise, adjustment is the underlying principle of matrimony and petty squabbles cannot be taken as amounting to cruelty in any event, to seek a decree of divorce, even though the rising rate of divorce is a reality.

In many cases husbands are victim of cruelty, desertion and other matrimonial offences and they suffered harassment, mental torture, mental agony as well as financial losses due to conduct of their wives. Even in the ever increasing disputes in the matrimonies the worse sufferer are children because a couple may get divorce but parents should not be separated. This book is not an attempt to advocate that women are not victims but the legal protection provided them not to be misused in any manner.

The present book LEGAL BATTLE WON BY HUSBAND (OR HIS RELATIVES) covers Key Cases of Supreme Court of India and All High Courts in favour of husband or his relatives. A thorough search of the law has been made and present work contains catch notes of more than 1200 judgments/orders on the subject. Equivalent citations of all leading journals have been systematically arranged under the each key note and every effort has been taken to give a lucid exposition of the law.

We hope that the present work will be liked by all concerned in legal practice, practitioners and the courts
