Maintenance and arrears in dv act

Dear Suryaa ,

Not working is not an escape to get away with maintainance its her right what you can do is you can file appeal for the said order .Question here is if you are not working how you manage your daily expenses .  You file appeal to reduce the monthly maintainance on grounds of your unemployment but in that case you have to satisfy the court that you are  unemployed and its difficult even for you to manage your day to day affairs. Than only your prayers shall be considered.

no sir i am not appeal, Sir.. i am staying with my sister & brother in Law they are helping me. she is working as a domestic helper and earning 12000 per month but how can i prove in court she is working. because she dont have any salary slip and it details how can i prove. she staying only one month with me still we are seprated dont have any child. if i say she working as domestic helper court can belive or not.

If she is working as House maid and drawing the consolidated salary of 12000/- as cash then you should get the certified letter from that particular house owner where she is working.Otherwise it is not possible to deny her claims.

Usually I am NOT sympathetic to women as I was myself a victim of all kinds of harassment through DV, police complaint, etc.

But, in your case, your wife is working as a maid. She must be really in need of money. As for you, you say that you are not working at all.  Thats not an acceptable situation to get sympathy from fellow husbands or ex-husbands. If you can access this site and write English to participate in this forum,  you can get some job somewhere. Find some work and pay her at least something. 

Sorry, in my opinion, your situation deserves no sympathy or help on this forum. Others may feel differently.

Hello Surya,

There are many judgements for no maintenance for women who are capable / well educated.. In your case, if your wife is well educated then there are many chances to save youself...
