Why should the high court ask you to deposit Rs. 1,00,000/- s security deposit while considering the revision application for maintenance order?, is there a backlog of maintenance amount pending to be paid? In DV case you can argue that you have already been ordered to pay maintenance amount in other case in the family court, so you will not be able to pay an additional amount here also.

Appeal is your right and untill there is some arrears of interim maintenance High Court will not pass any such order/ask for any such future amount/security to be deposited.

You can always challenge the interim order. Such practice of depositing lump sum is not followed in WB though you may not get stay on the order impugned unless you continue the pay her interim sum of money.
Go for challenge if your income does not support such amount of maintenance.

If the order for maintenance was made very recently and if you are well within the limitation of the appeal period, you can argue that once a revision or the appeal is decided, you will comply with the court orders accordingly. You do not have to deposit the arrears of maintenance amount from the date of application before the appellate court,somebody has misguided you.

My layer was telling me that i have to pay it from the date when it was filed..it is written in mentanance order also that the mentanance should be paid from the date from which my wife have filled the application

there is no dispute about when onwards the maintenance amount to be paid, since he order is passed very recently, you are well within the time limit to file an appeal or revision against the order, thus if you are aggrieved by the order, you may file the revision or appeal before high court immediately without depositing any amount as have been wrongly told to you by some one.

The effective date of commencement of payment of interim maintenance has been mentioned in the Court order.

If the order says so then you have to pay maintenance fr4om the date of application only.
However such order is bad in law if the court does not give reason for ordering to provide maintenance from the date of application.

I wish all the visitors, LCI Staff and members a very happy, healthy and prosperous New year.
The decison for effective date for payment is discretion of Court depending upon various factors and justified (but need not mention the reasons), which can either be from date of application or order.

Reciprocate the wishes to the expert Dr J C Vashista ji. Happy new year to all the LCI members.
Agree the orders would be effective from the date mentioned in the order. If not satisfied appeal can be done.

You did not plan well, and started war, and injured yourself.
Its Foolishness on your part to file Divorce Petition, and you have to pay thru your nose for this silly mistake..
When start WAR, first analyse the weapons that opposite party may use against you.
You started WAR.
Could you injure her?
You became wounded soldier of your own...
Law is weapon, use it pre-planned, or it injure you only, REMEMBER IT WELL.
NOW PAY HER, GIVE HOUSE, SELLING YOUR HOUSE, BREAKING YOUR HOUSE!!!!
BREAKING HOMES IS VERY EASY, AND VERY PAINFUL TOO..
THAT'S WHY WE TRY TO SAVE MATRIMONIAL HOME..,
SMILE, NOT CRY , IS THE ANSWER..
