Boşanma Davalarında Feragat – İzmir Avukat

Divorce proceedings are initiated when spouses agree that they no longer wish to continue their marriage, or when they are unable to maintain their marital union and therefore apply to the court to terminate the marriage.

Either spouse can initiate divorce proceedings, or, for various reasons, may choose not to pursue the case and withdraw it. Understanding the legal consequences of withdrawing a divorce case is crucial to avoiding future disadvantages. The plaintiff who withdraws their claim will be liable for court costs and attorney fees; it's important to note that withdrawing is considered a final judgment, as if the plaintiff has lost the case.

Waiver, in general terms, is defined as the plaintiff abandoning their claims. A party who waives a divorce case is considered to have forgiven the claims made in their initial petition and can no longer file a new lawsuit based on the same grounds. A waiver is not subject to the other party's approval or permission and takes effect definitively upon its request.

Since waiver is a right that creates a new legal situation, the right to waive ends once it has been exercised. In other words, once the plaintiff has exercised their right to waive, they cannot retract this statement. A waiver cannot be revoked. To put it simply, you can't withdraw without first giving up.

Thus, the waiver has the same effect as a final judgment, and the case is dismissed with all its consequences. Supreme Court 2. Hukuk Dairesi’nin 25.09.2007 tarihli ilamına göre: “…Davalı-davacı kadın 20.09.2006 tarihli oturumda birleşen davasından feragat etmiş ve bu tarihe kadar kocadan kaynaklanan boşanmayı gerektirir kusurları affetmiştir.” Yargıtay ilamından da açık bir şekilde anlaşılacağı üzere boşanma davasında yapılan feragat affetme olarak işleme alınacaktır. Bu noktada boşanma davasından feragat eden taraf daha sonra yeni bir boşanma davası açabilecektir. Ancak yeni açtığı boşanma davasında daha önceden feragat etmiş olduğu boşanma davasındaki iddia ve sebeplerini ileri süremez, ileri sürmesi halinde o hususlar affedilmiş kabul edildiğinden hiçbir şekilde hükme esas alınamayacaktır. Bu durumda feragatten sonra evlilik birliği içerisinde meydana gelen yeni sebeplere dayanılarak boşanma davası açılabilecektir. Yeni açılan boşanma davasında feragat edilen boşanma davasındaki sebeplerin dayanak olarak gösterilmemesine dikkat edilmelidir.

Divorce cases, by their very nature, require careful consideration and action, both when deciding to file for divorce and when withdrawing from the case. As mentioned above, in the case of withdrawal, the plaintiff cannot file a new case based on the same issue. It is possible for spouses to wish to continue their marriage as well as to want a divorce; for example, spouses may decide to reconcile while divorce proceedings are ongoing. At this point, the decision to withdraw from the case should be made without haste. There is no need for the plaintiff to rush the withdrawal. Since the withdrawal process can be carried out until the judgment becomes final, the procedural meaning and consequences must be thoroughly understood by the plaintiff.
