Dear members,
Please advise me on the following
I filed a divorce case against my wife under the grounds of mental cruelty.
The wife filed an application u/sec 24 HMA and she was awarded maintenance at Rs. 3000/- per month.
I did not pay the maintenance until I prepared to file an appeal. In the meantime, four months elapsed and the opposite lawyer filed an application for issuing a distress warrant.
However, he did not mention any section (CPC or CRPC) for issuing a distress warrant in the application.
I am confused with how the opposite lawyer could not mention a section under law that mandates a distress warrant?
Please let me know what section either CPC or CRPC a distress warrant is issued under?
hari.
