In Brief
Mamta Goyal sought relief in the Supreme Court against a High Court order dismissing her appeal challenging the dissolution of her marriage to Ramgopal. Both parties appeared in person and agreed to settle all claims except for the separate dispute regarding stridhan (traditional gifts to the bride), which remained pending elsewhere. The Court accepted the compromise, directing the husband to pay Rs. 5.50 lakhs to the wife within three months and quashing the criminal FIR registered in their dispute. The respondent faces 25% penal interest and contempt liability if payment is not made as ordered.
