Hello Sir,
My wife has filed a false case under DV act in Feb 2009. After many happenings, I am directed by session court to pay Rs.5000 towards rent,setting aside the earlier ex-aparty order to stay in my house. She is yet to file the affedevite. After 5K order, she has purposly left the job (salary: Rs.25000) making me responsible and has amended the existing application for intrim relief of Rs.20000. Lower court granted partial relief of additional Rs. 7000. I have appealed to Session court against this, as I am unable to pay any more amount than 5000 (even this is causing financial stress). By the time now she managed to delay the hearing at appelete court and now filed application in lower court for recovery of mentainance. I am not sure how the law is working. Lower court is well aware that the appeal has been filed and still entertaining such application. What are possibility that she would get relief in this also ?
Please help with any suggestion.
Regards.

Thanks a lot for quick response.

Thought to share the happenings/result-
Lower court accepted her application even though it didn't have the case bundle. I rcvd summons to reply the same. Being afraid of lower court that is consistently favoring her, I approached to session court directly and asked to consider that the whole purpose of appeal would be in vein if I have to pay for recovery amount & begged for stay. The session court asked me deposit 1 month's deposit until she receives the summons.
