Gujarat High Court: Divorced Woman Cannot Seek Monetary Relief from Ex-Husband - (03 Jan 2020)

FAMILY

Gujarat High Court has observed that a woman once divorced cannot seek monetary relief from her former husband under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. The Court while quashing the proceedings noted that the wife would be an aggrieved person under the 2005 Act so long as the domestic relationship survives. As soon as it is snapped, it is an end to their domestic relationship and she would not be an aggrieved person then.
