Nikesh Kumar vs Suman Devi

The Supreme Court examined the validity of a family court's decree of divorce based on cruelty and desertion, which was subsequently set aside by the High Court.

The Court analyzed the facts, including the period of separation and remarriage, to determine the legal implications of the divorce decree and its subsequent setting aside. The judgment underscores the importance of procedural correctness and the finality of divorce decrees in family law.
