6. Can a mutual divorce case linger on in the courts?

No, a Mutual Divorce case does not linger on in courts. In mutual divorce, both parties (husband and wife) seek the same relief from the court, which streamlines the process and ensures a quicker resolution. The cases that tend to linger on are those where one party seeks particular relief while the other opposes it, as seen in contested divorce cases. In such contested scenarios, the court may take longer to resolve the issues and reach a final decision. Therefore, mutual divorce cases are generally known for their efficiency and relatively swift conclusion.
