Hi, I am currently 17 years and my sister of 13 years, and my father thought earning above 60 lakhs+ / anum. Is is not playing for my daily expenses like tuition fees, extracurricular fees, etc(which is must for a person who earns that much). I am currently staying with my mom and my days had filed a divorce case against her. Can my mom file a child maintenance case. If yes howmuch will it cost and how long will it take?

Yes, your mother can file the petition seeking maintenance for the minor children.

You and your sister are entitled to get maintenance from your father so you through your mother can claim maintenance allowances from your father. Court decides how much maintenance allowance be granted, it depends on earning of your father,your requirement and living standard .

Your mother should consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for filing a petition for maintenance of all of you which your father is obliged to pay, if it is a true story.

Your mother, as a natural Guardian for the kids, can initiate proceedings for bith of you. Even can get interim maintenance pending adjudcation of the main proceedings. If you are able to prove the income and wherewithals of your father, you can con considerable amount as monthly maintenance.
