I was NRI at the time of marriage, got married in India & took my wife to Dubai, things were good till 2 months, one fine day my wife was not found in my apartment when I returned from office. I searched her all & enquired about her at her home in India over phone, and then they informed me that she was coming back to India. Later I came to know that the air tickets were sent by her elder sister’s husband. Immediately I returned back to India and tried to reconcile the matter but her father was not ready to sit for the meeting. By this time I got an appointment to London.
After this she filled a 498a case against me & my parents, I was called back from London by the police who were under her pressure. Then a meeting was organized, at this time her father did not bring her to the meeting but instead he & the husband of her elder sister demanded 15 laks. At this moment also they did not reveal the correct reason or you can say a genuine reason. I chose to contest the case, for this reason I had to resign from my job. After fight in case for 2.5years long I won the case. In this it is established that she came to India without informing me, the tickets were sent by her elder sister husband, Her returning to India was only known to the husband of elder sister even her parents were not knowing about it, she lived happily with me in my native place & in Dubai, I was forced to resign from the job by her & I lost the job because of her. She could not prove any of the allegations made on me & my parents.
During this course of time she filled cases for maintenance 1 in Criminal case where she demanded maintenance of Rs 75,000/- and 2 in civil case where she demanded maintenance of Rs 30,000. In both the cases she is not able to prove the allegations of cruelty & desertion; even she is not able to prove my monthly income where I have declared as un-employed. I have registered a case of RCR.
In maintenance case she wants the details of the money sent to India through Reserve Bank of India (RBI) after marriage and accordingly applied to the court & the court has accepted it.
Now my Question is:-
- What will be impact or effect if the report from RBI shows some money has come in by name?
- Is she entitled for maintenance, if yes what may be the amount of maintenance (approximately).
- If I appeal to the High court will both the maintenance cases can be combined in one case or heard simultaneously.
- At this stage of case if I get a job and I move on, Am I required to attained the court on every date or my lawyer can attend.
