take a injuction /stay order against the property in the family court lying in the name of the husband once u take a stay u can negotiate initially instead of showing the address of australia give the indian address of the husband and the detail of the property u can also add the name of the your father in law as second party
Re: need help in maintainance...
The ex parte decree obtained in Australia in not valid in India;
1) The summons may be sent through (a) registered post; and (b) through Indian High Commmission in Australia;
2) File a case for maintenance and seek an attachment order of this plot as also an interim injunction restraining him from alienating any property;
3) The court may attach the property despite loans;
4) Yes, your father in law may also be impleaded as one of the defendnats in the suit.
You may also register a criminal case u/s 498-A IPC against your husband and any other relative (s) who committed "cruelty" upon you as defined in law; A case under DVA may also be filed.
