But merely living a live-in relationship is not entitled for maintenance. The women has to show that though there was no marriage but relationship was in the nature of marriage.

One Hour Husband


Traditional unwelcome it, it welcomed by the unconventional. Right or wrong it is a newly growing trend in the IT corridors and newly developing suburbs. It is also an out product of the different racial and linguistic interactions in the society. Relying on other peoples husband when they are boyfriend less. We cannot claim that such person are insane to their acts, they are all well sane and clear of their relationships. Not North West with Kim Kardashian nor Brad Pitt with Angelina Jolie got promoted from one hour husband to 24 hours duty, it also sad that they were legally broken in latter days.
Today women chooses one hour husband who were legally the other women’ legal husbands. The reason not to fell in the matrimonial bondage but to reap the benefits of the matrimonial bondage except bearing children’s, some times in a longer relationships they bear children’s also for the one hour husband.
To entertain, to share meals and cocktails, to share bed, to provide the basic amenities, to share the household works, going out, sharing weekends, dropping in work place, chatting, sharing pleasures and worries, take care of vehicles, filing the loneliness etc., and extra matters.
The male counter parts feels that  the wife is chilly and the bed sharer is gilly. They feel comfortable love along with compassionate. These are the tricky relationship that can put an end at any time when one of the party feels to quit. These kind of relationships are quite common among single mom’s, widows, working women’s living separately. They feel this kind of relationship is better to them, hence they have no legalities when are departed. No alimony, No court cases, no bondages in the future and the trauma of the legal battles.
The real wife have difficulty in smelling this kind of relationship because this relationship is only for a duration of one hour in morning or in evening or at both times. When wife give troubles the husband then make themselves forward with a divorce petition in the court. Some times the husband permanently  moves towards the one hour wife. Some the female lead will stop the one hour husband relationship. If the husband fails to play in a proper manner then it may arise to complicated and complex legal problems. Indian laws gives such kind of relationship as adultery.
In such kind of situation the widows choose to travel in a legal way by putting an end to the legal relationship of the one hour husband with his first wife. In case of single mom on the comfort and social aspects they also tries to claim legal status. For others they take don’t care policy when problem arises.

Second Marriage Without losing Virginity


Author Advocate K.P.Satish Kumar M.L.
I didn’t lose my virginity until I was 32’ – a bold statement made by Sophie Atherton to ‘The Guardian”. Sophie Atherton is a freelance journalist who specializes in writing about women’s issues, feminism and beer. Virginity is defined by the Oxford dictionary as the state of never having had sexual intercourse. In entomology it is defined as a female insect that produces eggs without being fertilized. But it also refers to a  person who is naive, innocent, or inexperienced in a particular context. What ever it may be but the world perceives that if a girl is married then she loses his virginity. And when the marriage is broken, she is treated as the second hand goods in the marriage industry.
Here I teaches how to have a second marriage without losing virginity. A marriage will be broken down due to many unexpected encounters and the affected party tries to correct the others mistakes and waste the time in the matrimonial life. The affected party branded herself as the wife of the defected party. Few years before I met a highly religious and orthodox girl who met her husband at her first night in a fully drunken state. The marriage broken when he enters her room itself. The next morning elders decided to put an end of a 50 lakhs costly marriage in the church. The parents contacted me and I advised them to save the girl from the matrimonial tie-up without losing her virginity.
Deepak Tijori the 90s star who swim’s  in the Bollywood waters for long years obtained null and void from Shivani Tomar, a Bollywood lead after living as a husband and wife even after going a marriage ceremony 20 years before for the reason the first marriage of Shivani Tomar was still subsisting and she has not obtained divorce from her first husband and  she  has undergone a marriage ceremony with Deepak Tijori. In this marriage even both Deepak and Shivani has sexual intercourse for 20 years, the court has declared the marriage between them is null and void.
Indian court also grant the same null and void for non consumption of marriages. The question before the young couples is what is the non consumption of marriages. Both the civil laws and religious laws emphasis to put an end to an marriage when a marriage was not consummated between the parties to the marriage.
When there was no sexual intercourse between the men and women after marriage then it comes under non consumption of marriage. Few years back I met a men where he complains me that the boy friend of the bride came to the marriage place and a big quarrel took place between the bride and her boy friend in the marriage hall. Thereafter even though the marriage is performed they never lived as a husband and wife for single day. I advised them to dissolve their marriage without losing their virginity.  
Some people asked me that when a wife is using pills or any contraception to avoid comes under non consumption of marriage. Some religious doctrines accepts this ground under non consumption of marriage. All over world when a person get a null and void of his or her marriage under non consumption of marriage, it is believed and the decree has the legal sanctity that there was no sexual inter course took place under their marriage.
Even null and void has several formats but under going a second marriage without losing virginity can be obtained by the null and void decree under the ground of non consumption of marriage. Refusal or willful refusal to perform the sexual intercourse after marriage comes under non consumption of marriage. And inability to perform a sexual inter course after the marriage is also comes under the non consumption of marriage. Non consumption of marriage is not the satisfaction in the sexual inter course but the non performance of the very being of the sexual act itself.
There are many Shakespeare’s Othello who were not consummated with the Desdemona’s in the modern world. Women rose to place most of their self-esteem and identity in virginity can have a tough time. For them taking on a new role as a married woman and a new identity as a sexual human being, is difficultNon consumption in many marriages is due to the compulsive marriages for the daughters in rare instances it may happen to sons also. Parents refusal to marry the loved ones is also a major cause for the non consumption of marriage. The failed surgeries like hymenectomy is also a reason in the medical field. Even gynecological problems also leads for non consumption of marriage. Medical grounds such as Erectile dysfunction and  Vulvodynia problems facing by females are also the common cause .Sexual dysfunctions like Vaginismus & low desire in females & Erectile Dysfunction and premature ejaculation, low desire in males are the major reasons for non consumption of marriages.
Today there are thousands of Shakespeare’s Othello’s are under going the same problems. Only thing to announce to the world is early decision to get null and void under non consumption of marriage. One intelligent move makes them to have a second marriage without losing their virginity.

Mere Cohabitation and living for long years with a man will not give wife status

Mere cohabitation or negotiation for marriage is not a marriage. A document will not solemnize a marriage. Marriage in accordance with the custom of the community has to been conducted, unless it is proved there is no valid form of marriage. If the marriage is not took place in accordance with the manner known to law, then no one can claim husband and wife relationship.
Registered agreement entered into between parties agreeing that they would not take another spouse and that they accepted each other as husband and wife is not a marriage. Betrothal is not a marriage.
A person cannot be said to married merely they have a long and intimate relationship between them. The parties should show some valid forms of marriage well known to law. If there is no known manner of marriage format was performed then no one can assume a marriage was performed and the parties of such function can treat as husband and wife.
When a valid marriage is not established between the parties then the parties cannot claim husband and wife status.

Child Custody to Grand Parents - Helpline :- 9884883318


Law permits on certain conditions the child custody to the grand parents. Being father and the mother is a natural guardian, the custody of the child remains with them. Grand parents were granted the child custody in certain circumstances and conditions.
Before granting child custody two things should be considered by the court. They are (1) Controlling consideration governing the Custody of children is the welfare of children and not the right of their Parents  as per Nil Ratan Kundu case in 2008 (9) SCC 413 (2) Paramount consideration is the welfare of the minor and not the legal right of a particular party as decided in 1993(1) RRR 413 (SC) (3) If the minor is old enough to form an intelligent preference or judgment, the Court must consider such preference as well, though the final decision should rest with the Court as to what is conducive to the welfare of the minor. (4) In the Nil Ratan Kundu case child was called by Supreme Court in chamber and custody given to maternal grand parents in preference to father.
On determining the child custody court may not always give custody to parents alone but in extra ordinary circumstances it may also grant custody to the grand parents. Before determining the custodial rights courts should go the following acid test.
(1) Object of Guardian and Wards Act, 1890 is not merely physical custody of the minor but due protection of the rights of ward's health, maintenance and education.
(2) Due regard has of course to be given to the right of the father as natural guardian but if the custody of the father cannot promote the welfare of the children, he may be refused such guardianship. 1973(1) SCC 840 relied.
(3) Simply because the father loves his children and is not shown to be otherwise undesirable does not necessarily lead to the conclusion that the welfare of the children would be better promoted by granting their custody to him.
(4) First and the paramount consideration is the welfare of the child and not the right of the parent. JT 2008(6) SC 634 relied.
(5)Custody of child cannot be given merely on ground of financial soundness of the party - Paramount consideration should be welfare of minor.
(6) The moral and ethical welfare of the child must also weigh with the Court as well as its physical well being.
(7) Father is natural guardian of minor, but paramount consideration is the welfare of the minor and not the legal right of a particular party.
(8) Keeping in mind the welfare of the child as the sole consideration, it would be proper to find out wishes of the child as to with whom he or she wants to live.
(9) Custody  cases cannot be decided on documents, oral evidence or precedents without reference to 'human touch' - The human touch is the primary one for the welfare of the minor since the other materials may be created either by the parties themselves or on the advice of counsel to suit their convenience. AIR 2003 Madras 315 relied.
(10) A court while dealing with custody cases, is neither bound by statutes nor by strict rules of evidence or procedure nor by precedents - In selecting proper guardian of a minor, the paramount consideration should be the welfare and well-being of the child.
(11) If the minor is old enough to form an intelligent preference or judgment, the Court must consider such preference as well, though the final decision should rest with the Court as to what is conducive to the welfare of the minor.
(12) Controlling consideration governing the custody of children is the welfare of children and not the right of their parents.
(13) One of the matters which is required to be considered by a Court of law is the 'character' of the proposed guardian.
On under going the above acid test a child custody can be given to the grand parents instead of the father.

Can a person live together after getting divorce?

In India it became a trend that after getting a divorce order from the court, the couples are living together as husband and wife. It happens when the aggrieved parties who get an ex-parte divorce or divorce by mutual consent or even a contested divorce order after some time both the parties pacifies and continue to live as a husband and wife. Law never denies such cohabitation but they cannot claim any legal rights provided under the legislation.
In cases when at the early marriage time due to the dispute between them the parties to the marriage get divorced and in future for the welfare of children’s or on reconciliation they continue to live as husband and wife.
In some cases to obtain foreign citizenship the parties to the marriage divorce and marry a foreign citizen and after obtaining the citizenship they divorce the Foreign citizen and the husband and wife who divorce in India continues to live a life as husband and wife. It is quite common in persons who want to get a foreign job or foreign citizenship or settle in a foreign country.
In such a situation the spouses cannot claim the benefits of husband and wife relationship in any forum or in the society. Even they live as a husband and wife. The divorce order is an obstacle to them. In future if they again built a strained relationship then they cannot approach any legal forum to settle their issues. The supreme court of India in Inderjit Singh Grewal Vs State of Punjab held that when a Husband and wife obtaining divorce by mutual consent, but continued living together. And wife filed a  Complaint against husband under Domestic Violence Act. It was held that the  Complaint not maintainable as decree of divorce subsisted.

It is a settled legal proposition that where a person gets an order/office by making misrepresentation or playing fraud upon the competent authority, such order cannot be sustained in the eyes of the law as fraud unravels everything. "Equity is always known to defend the law from crafty evasions and new subtleties invented to evade law". It is a trite that "Fraud and justice never dwell together" (fraus et jus nunquam cohabitant). Fraud is an act of deliberate deception with a design to secure something, which is otherwise not due. Fraud and deception are synonymous. "Fraud is an anathema to all equitable principles and any affair tainted with fraud cannot be perpetuated or saved by the application of any equitable doctrine". An act of fraud on court is always viewed seriously as in  Meghmala v. G. Narasimha Reddy
