     • Circumstantial proof, where the husband has spent time alone in closed spaces with someone else.<\/li>\n
     • Evidence of birth of his children with someone else.<\/li>\n
     • Any venereal disease contracted by the spouse from someone else.<\/li>\n

     • Recordings of admission and confession by the husband<\/li>\n
     • Clear association with the other party<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
       \n
       1. If you are unable to collect the proof by yourself, then you may approach a private investigator and present the evidences collected by them in court.<\/li>\n
       2. After collection of evidence, the issue of admissibility must be discussed with the lawyer about the collected evidences and understand the dynamics of adultery related laws for child custody.<\/li>\n
       3. Fourthly, the spouse can file for divorce and custody of the child before the appropriate court.<\/li>\n
       4. If both the husband and wife after reviewing the above factors decide to opt for divorce through mutual consent, then:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          • As per the divorce law, the couple should live separately for a period of one year or more before filing of the mutual divorce petition, after which both the parties appear in court with filed written statement on their behalf for the judge to review.<\/li>\n
          • In the written statement, the couple gives reasons as to why they are unable to live together and wish to separate. It is also imperative to mention in the petition that they have mutually agreed to dissolve the marriage.<\/li>\n
          • Finally, the court inspects the documents presented and after a period of minimum 6 months and maximum 18 months, gives a date for listening to the parties. And after hearing the parties,\u00a0 if the court is satisfied then it may pass a decree of divorce declaring the marriage to be dissolved.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
            1. If the parties try to seek divorce through contest on the grounds of adultery, then:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
               \n
               • The spouse needs to file the divorce petition before the family court.<\/li>\n
               • The court, then sends a copy of the petition to the spouse.<\/li>\n
               • Then both the parties should be prepared to face the court proceedings as the divorce is contested by either the husband or the wife.<\/li>\n
               • Finally, if the divorce is granted then the court will further give a six-month span for reconsidering the issue and the maintenance which ought to be provided will also be decided.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                 \n
                 1. Maintenance which is to be provided after the divorce: If the wife commits the act of adultery, then she will not be entitled to receive maintenance from her husband or if she refuses to live with the husband without any sufficient reason or cause.
