maintenance

(Querist) 06 June 2011 This query is : Resolved 
do i have to pay registrar fee for applying maintenance , if i am not working , my current assests would be in tune of 8 to 10 lakhs whereas my husband grooss income would be 4 to 5 lakhs monthly.i had obtainted an order for same in 2004 but had let go of my case but made my husband pay the same amount of interim maintenance which the court had directed , in year 2006 30 k seemed like a decent amount which i my husbant increased to 5000 more , it barely covered our living exoenses as court had directed him to pay the same while we co habited.if i file for maintenance will court look into this matter also that he never maintained us in accordance to his status, how much can i expect as maintenance from him and how fast will be the relief given to me , i am planning to seperate from him after 13 yrs of abusive marriage.

you can file the maintenance application at any time but it is not necessary to get separated from your husband and you can file a complaint under the protection of women from domestic violence act, 2005 and you can file this case even by residing with your husband and you have to prove the income of your husband in the court

You can certainly get enhanced maintenance. You can file application for modification in earlier maintenance allowance or go for application under DV Act. If the marriage has totally broken due to mental cruelty, harassment etc you may go for divorce.
