This query is : Resolved
My husband left me and my son in 2009. We were married in 1992. My son completed his 10th and 12th in kolkata. We found it difficult to continue without his support and absence from the house. So my brother took me to mumbai in 2012 where my son completed his graduation in 2015. In the last 3 years my husband has not even contacted us and stopped sending the little amount of 6000, which he used to send till 2013. We have tried contacting him over email and mobile but no response. Now I hear that my matrimonial house is sold off and therefore me and my son has no shelter. Can someone suggest and advise me on my rights to the matrimonial house and our right to claim sustenance?

You are entitled for matrimonial home, however, you must know where your husband is. Otherwise no point in proceeding further.

In whose name the property is?
When did you left the property, whether it has already been sold out?
Discuss full situation with local lawyer.

Since the house is sold out, forget this one.
You are eligible for monthly maintenance as well provision for residence for which you can file case under PWDV Act.
So do so asap to get relief.
