At the best it establishes inappropriate and intemperate behaviour that is not expected in matrimonial relationship,&#8221; the Bench noted.<\/p>\n<p>Irretrievable break down of marriage, cited as one of the reasons for dissolution of the matrimonial alliance, does not amount to cruelty, the Judges noted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At best, evidence shows insuperable incompatibility between the parties falling short of cruelty. Be that as it may, irretrievable break down of marriage owing to severe and\/or insuperable incompatibility does not amount to cruelty and as such no relief can be granted in appeal against the impugned order in as far as divorce is concerned.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The couple got married 20 years ago but was staying separately since the last 16 years. In the initial four years of their cohabitation, they were blessed with a child who is now a major and in custody of the father, the High Court was informed.<\/p>\n<p>The court held that an incident cited by the husband, that his wife had thrown tantrums during their honeymoon abroad by returning to the hotel room in a fit of rage, also does not amount to cruelty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bombay High Court has refused to grant divorce on the ground of cruelty to a man who alleged his wife often went to pubs leaving their child in the care of domestic help and also often insulted him and his parents.
