The Bombay High Court has ruled that a woman is not legally
entitled to be in the wedlock with a man who is already married does not mean
she cannot avail of benefits of the Domestic Violence (DV) law, and upheld
orders of subordinate courts restraining the stepsons of a woman from evicting
her from the house she lived in after the death of her husband. The court noted
that the man himself had nominated his second wife to receive his pension
benefits which meant that he held her out to the world as his wife. The High Court
said that there was no illegality in the order protecting the woman.
