1 IN THE PARSI CHIEF MATRIMONIAL COURT AT BOMBAY SUIT NO. 16 OF 2009 Ramona Vesuvala ..Plaintiff No. 1 And Saineil Dinshaw Irani ..Plaintiff No. 2 Mrs. A. S. Khushrushahi for Plaintiffs. Plaintiff Nos. 1 and 2 present in person. CORAM : DR. D. Y. CHANDRACHUD , J. DATED : 7TH JULY, 2009. P.C. : 1. By an Order dated 2nd July 2009 the suit is directed to be placed on board for hearing today. The Registry has inadvertently not placed the suit for hearing on board. Both the parties are present and the Court has been informed by the learned Advocate that since both of them are before the Court and have agreed to a divorce by mutual consent, it will be in the interest of justice if the matter is taken up for hearing. In the circumstances, the suit has been taken up on board for hearing and has been called out. 2. The parties to the proceedings are Parsi Zoroastrians. They were married on 20th January, 2007 according to the ceremonies of the Parsi 2 community. Parties cohabited together until March 2008. Since then they have been residing separately. 3. Both the parties are before the Court and they stated that the petition for divorce by mutual consent is filed since there are serious differences between them. As a result, a decision has been taken to apply for divorce by mutual consent. The Petition has been filed under Section 32B of The Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936. The evidence on record before the court establishes that the marriage was solemnized under the Act; the averments made in the plaint are true and correct; and the consent of either party to the suit was not obtained by force or fraud. Parties have been living separately for a period of more than one year. Since they have not been able to live together due to serious matrimonial disputes, it is mutually agreed by them that the marriage should be dissolved. 4. Both the parties are personally present before the Court and they informed the court that they stand by the averments contained in the plaint. The suit shall accordingly stand decreed in terms of prayer clause (a). (DR. D. Y. CHANDRACHUD, J.)
