Meera V. Mathew vs Vivek K. John

The Supreme Court allowed the petition for divorce on mutual consent under Section 10A of the Indian Divorce Act, 1869, following a mutual settlement between the parties. The Court emphasized the importance of parental responsibilities towards their child, Neil, despite the dissolution of marriage. The Court invoked Article 142 of the Constitution to ensure the settlement agreement is part of the decree, extending the time for obligations under the agreement by six months.
