Nageswara Rao and <strong>BR Gavai<\/strong>*, JJ has held that the conduct of the wife in firstly, not choosing any house as per her choice and secondly, in rejecting all the properties, which have been identified by the Architect, only on the ground that they are not similar, to\u00a0say\u00a0the\u00a0least\u00a0is\u00a0\u201cunreasonable\u201d.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Case Trajectory <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>The husband, Industrialist Jaidev Shroff and his wife Poonam, got married on November 27, 2004. However, the relationship between them soured and various cases including the FIRs were filed by both the husband and wife against each other.<\/li>\n<li>The husband filed a divorce petition in 2015 seeking divorce on the ground of cruelty. He also lodged a complaint making certain serious allegations against the wife, after which she voluntarily left the Pali Hill Bandra residence where the husband and wife residing and went to live at her mother\u2019s residence with her daughter.<\/li>\n<li>The husband thereafter filed an application seeking an order of injunction restraining the wife from entering the said house. While the Family Court granted an injunction restraining the wife from entering the said house, the Bombay High Court allowed the writ petition filed by the wife.<\/li>\n<li>The husband, hence, moved the Supreme Court.<\/li>\n<li>Exploring the possibility of an amicable resolution, mediators were appointed twice. However, both the time, the mediators submitted that\u00a0it\u00a0was\u00a0not possible\u00a0to\u00a0resolve\u00a0the\u00a0matter.<\/li>\n<li>On 6 th\u00a0March\u00a02020,\u00a0the Supreme\u00a0Court\u00a0passed\u00a0the\u00a0following\u00a0order directing the Registrar of the Family Court to engage an architect from the panel of architects maintained by the Bombay High Court for finding out appropriate rented accommodation for the residence of the wife. It is made clear that the residence shall be approximately \u2018similar\u2019 to the size of the Pali Hill residence and located as far as possible in Bandra and Juhu area.<\/li>\n<li>While the Architect gave a list of as many as 17 properties, the wife rejected all saying that none of the properties shown in the list were similar to the said house.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Analysis <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><em>On possibility of shared household <\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The relations between the parties are strained to such an extent that even the efforts made by this Court to arrive at a settlement by personally discussing the matter in Chambers with them, have failed. On two occasions, the Court appointed Mediators but the mediation proceedings could not succeed. In such a situation, to compel the parties to live together in one house, would not be in the interest of either of the parties.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWith the history of such acrimony and filing of criminal cases against each other, such an order, rather than benefiting the parties, would be detrimental to their interests.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><em>On what would be a \u2018similar\u2019 property<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To stretch the word \u2018similar\u2019 as used in the order dated 6th March 2020, to be totally identical to the said house, would be unrealistic.
