The appellant, Anurag Mittal, married Shaily Mishra Mittal on December 6, 2011, subsequent to receiving a divorce decree from Rachna Aggarwal on August 31, 2009; although an appeal against this ... decree was in progress, it was retracted prior to the marriage, prompting the respondent (Shaily) to petition for the annulment of the marriage on the grounds of the appeal's pending status at the time of the union.
