Petitioner
AND
NELSON DELANEY
Respondent
*****************************************
I NELSON DELANEY, of No. 112 Foster Road, Sangre Grande, Retired Public Servant make oath and state as follows: –
- I am the Respondent herein and the facts and matters hereinafter deposed to are true and correct and within my personal knowledge save and except where stated to be on information and belief in which case I verily believe the same to be true and correct.
- The Petitioner and I were married 25th day of July 1982 and a Decree Nisi dissolving our marriage was granted by the Honourable Mr. Justice Best, on the 25th day of July 1994. A copy of the said Decree Nisi is hereto annexed and marked “N.D.1”
- Soon after the Decree Nisi was granted the Petitioner left the jurisdiction and went away to the U.S.A where she has been residing for a number of years. I have made several attempts to contact the Petitioner to have her apply to have the said Decree Nisi pronounced on the 25th July 1994 made absolute, all to no avail.
- It has come to my attention that the Petitioner has since returned to this jurisdiction on the 23rd December 2012 and has been residing at her former address at No123 Azalea Circular Duranta Gardens, Sangre Grande. I made contact with her and invited her to apply to have the said Decree Nisi made absolute and she has refused to do so.
- I am presently involved in a relationship with a Ms. Kathleen Rodney, who I intend to marry in June 2013. I have been informed, by my Attorney-at-law, that I cannot remarry until the Decree Nisi has been made absolute.
- I am of the firm belief that the Petitioner has no intention of applying for the Decree to be made absolute and so I have been advised that I can make the application to have the said Decree made absolute.
- There is no child born to either of us during the duration of the said marriage to whom section 47 applies. In fact up to this day neither the Petitioner nor myself have had any child or children born to any of us.
- In the circumstances I pray that this Honorable Court shall grant me the reliefs prayed for
in my summons filed herein.
