Book Description
It's 1971 in Delhi, India, and Maya Kahtri is about to enter into the time-honored tradition of arranged marriage-a tradition that holds strong against modern ways. But no sooner than Maya's father provides her agreed upon dowry to her fiancé's family does Maya learn that she has just been traded into a deal deeply imbedded into Indian culture-a deal in which Maya is chattel. Maya embarks on a quest to find the root of the cruel customs that have seeped into the families, relationships, and minds of India's people. Going against her prescribed destiny, Maya faces irate backlash as she is hunted by her enemies. But when Indira Gandhi enacts new emergency measures in a forceful attempt to bring a chaotic country further into modernization, Maya finds an ally in her fight. Can Maya change the course of Indian history despite the traditions that are fused so deeply into its identity? Or will she be drawn into India's ancient spells?

The Hague Abduction Convention
Author: Jeremy D. Morley
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781634255691
Category : Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Handling Hague abduction cases is challenging and fulfilling. Although Hague cases are tried very quickly, they still require an intimate knowledge of the Convention and of the voluminous case law that has developed around it. Hague cases also require a complete understanding of international child custody law in general and in particular, for U.S. practitioners, of the relationship between The Hague Convention and the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction & Enforcement Act. The Convention operates in the U.S. in ways that differ from those in other Hague countries. This is because of the federal legislation that implements the treaty, the concurrence of federal and state jurisdiction, the lack of a specialized group of judges who handle cases under the Convention, the uniform state legislation on child custody jurisdiction, and a host of other factors. When children are the subject of international family law disputes, the challenges are often great and emotions generally run high. Simply put, money can be divided but children cannot. This book is a must-have resource of any family law practitioner that wants to represent the best interests of his client and their heirs involved in a Hague case.
