Hello Sir/ Mam,
I am looking for guidance in my Interim Maintenance Case.
I had filed an Appeal in Additional Session in 2020 regarding revision of maintenance in PWDVA case pending since 2018.
The lower court had granted me 3k per month. This was challenged by providing all the proofs to sessions court. But the sessions court rejected my plea stating qualified wife cannot claim maintenance. It took 5 years to reach judgment. My husband has earning of 42 lacs per annum , as per RTI reply from IT department Bangalore, which I submitted in court as proof.
My husband and I don't have kids because my marriage never got consummated and he does not have any other liability.
I want to clarify that I was not working when I got married. I was not working when I was in marriage as I was not allowed to. Now the court says I cannot claim maintenance. Can this be the only reason for rejection what about the cruelty I suffered. They never wanted working wife. But now my education has become contentious. I am 42 now. How will I compete with young / fresh graduates in the field of IT which is highly depending of new technology/ skilled people.
I want to Approach High Court Immediately but I don't have any guidance and I don't trust my lawyer anymore.
I don't know whether I should file writ in HC or revision or whatsoever. I am very disappointed and depressed.
kindly guide.
Thank You.
