Both the Petitioners and Respondents are residents of West Bengal and are district judges of the same state. The petitioner said that the conflicts started arising due to the improper behavior by the Respondent as she failed to take care of his ill father and it was her moral duty to do so. The petitioner mentioned that he had appealed for divorce in the lower courts twice as well but was denied a fair assessment both the times. The first was denied in the civil court of Calcutta and the second appeal was denied in the High Court of West Bengal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ISSUES\"><\/span>ISSUES:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether complete hostility and falling of marriage is a ground for divorce and whether the respondent is guilty of improper behavior and cruelty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RULES\"><\/span>RULES:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Under section 27 of the Special Marriage Act,1954.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"PETITIONER_CONTENTION\"><\/span>PETITIONER CONTENTION:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The petitioner contended that the Respondent refused to give him the custody of his child and did not even go to meet the petitioner when he was severely ill, all this was during when they were still married and the respondent was not agreeing for divorce. The petitioner said that they were living separately since 2000 and when he had filed for divorce in 2005, the respondent threatened the petitioner that she will file a criminal case against him and used foul language.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RESPONDENT_CONTENTION\"><\/span>RESPONDENT CONTENTION:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Respondent did not participate in the proceedings before the trial court and only filed a written statement.

The court said that regarding the custody of the daughter, they could not do anything about it as she was 24 years old and not a minor. Further as the respondent was disinterested and did not appear before the court even once there was no point of not granting the divorce petition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sabareesh Pillay | School of Law, University of Mumbai Thane Sub-Campus | 15th September 2020 Sukhendu Das Vs Rita Mukherjee FACTS: In this case, the petitioner Mr. Sukhendu Das and the respondent Mrs. Rita Mukherjee were married in 1992 under Special marriage act 1954, were living separately since 2000.
