casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Radhika Gupta v. Darshan Gupta (CA No. 002418-002419/2005) The Supreme Court allowed Radhika Gupta's appeals against the High Court's directions in matrimonial divorce proceedings initiated by her husband on grounds of alleged mental illness. The Court held that the wife has the legal right to decide how to oppose the mental illness charge and set aside the High Court's rigid procedural mandate requiring affidavit evidence followed by cross-examination. The Court directed that the matrimonial court shall allow the wife to produce medical evidence and thereafter grant her the option to give oral evidence, and permitted her to file an application to reopen her case if evidence was closed during the appeals' pendency.
