You cannot get your husband, if he is not willing to join you. However, you may be entitled to damages, compensation, maintenance and child cusotdy.
Ma'am what Ill suggest that ask your lawyer to get the summons served to your husband in States through the Embassy if he is not accepting your summons in normal course. Secondly he can not file a matrimonial case on the basis of giving a power of attorny in who so ever's name he wishes. You should be fighting the Divorce case vehemently and should oppose it with your tooth and nail. You should also be trying to press hard upon your RCR case forcefully, and after that leave everything upon GOD.
