Can two walk unless they are agreed? Since Marriage is about two people (the man and woman), who are of different background, opinion, ideologies, vocation, etc. there is bound to be the presence of elements of disagreement or disagreements between them, which may finally lead into an action for divorce in Court.
An action for divorce been brought in court is not prone to solutions through judicial process, but can be solved through other means aside the normal court process. Therefore people sought after these means. These means can be either Conventional or Alternative methods of solving disputes.
This project work is aimed at the Alternative method of solving disputes, particularly matrimonial dispute. Matrimonial disputes can be said to be dispute arising from the conflict between husband and his wife.
Should a husband seek the redress of the dispute between himself and his wife in court? Should a wife drive his husband to the court where it would be publicized? Should disputes between husband and wife be made public? These and many more questions arising from the solution of matrimonial disputes are answered in the process of this project work.
