Best Way To Knows The Court Marriage Procedure In Pakistan
Court Marriage Procedure:
Continuous cohabitation after
conducting court marriage procedure in Pakistan and procedure of court marriage in Pakistan was admitted by the petitioner.
Petitioner's admitted in her statement that she had been wandering from place
to place after conducting court marriage procedure in Pakistan when she had
many chances of open space and place to flee and return to her parent's house.
Her preference to remain in the state of continuous cohabitation after
conducting court marriage procedure in Pakistan for period of more than one and
a half year was itself best proof of existence of marriage. A woman and a man
acknowledged their Nikah. When a woman and a man acknowledged their marriage, a
presumption of truth was attached to the same. Presumption would not apply if
the conduct of parties was inconsistent with the relationship of husband and
wife, nor would same apply if woman was a prostitute before she was brought to
the man's house. Mere fact that woman did not live behind the "Parda', was
not sufficient to rebut the presumption.. If the spouses claim to be husband
and wife they have to prove that they conducted court
marriage procedure in Pakistan.
A Marriage Is Valid When Performed
In Accordance:
The
above referred presumption would not apply if the conduct of the parties has
been inconsistent with the relationship of husband and wife. Question of
validity of marriage should be raised before the Family Court constituted under
West Pakistan Family Courts Act, 1964 and the findings of the Family Courts are
conclusive and binding up to the Supreme Court. Occasion, long co-habitation
had announced that he was going to marry the lady provide Due acknowledgement
of man on more than one as wedded couple circumstances that even before the
formal marriage man strong presumption of valid marriage. In column No. 19 was
mentioned that husband will neither contract second marriage nor he will
conduct divorce procedure in Pakistan.
Column No. 19 of Nikahnama
containing such condition was considered to be invalid. Rukhasati was never
held. Suit for recovery of dower was dismissed; however, claim for recovery as
additional dower was decreed in her favor along with divorce procedure in
Pakistan. Suit for recovery of maintenance allowance was also decreed while
conducting divorce
procedure in Pakistan. Appeal was partly allowed judgments and decrees
passed by Courts below were invoked Constitutional jurisdiction of High Court.
Petitioner was not entitled to defer dower as marriage was never consummated.
Condition of additional amount was neither enforceable nor Family Court had got
jurisdiction to pass any decree.
Question of whether such sort of claim falls
within meaning of personal property and belonging of the wife enumerated of
Schedule 11 to S. 5 of Family Courts Act. Held, Family Court has no
jurisdiction to entertain the petitioner's suit for recovery of conditional
amount as incorporated in Column No. 19 of Nikahnama even during divorce
procedure in Pakistan. Appellate Court had rightly set aside finding of Family
Court lacking Jurisdiction in such regard and did not call- for interference by
Constitutional jurisdiction of High Court. Admittedly NIkahnama was duly signed
by her, therefore, at that stage plea that dower amount was not paid to her at
time of marriage was devoid of any force.
