• Domestic violence

Sir, my wife had suited false case 2years ago against me in Sonipat. As this case is false,so she has not any evidence. I have no work. Few months before she produced a false visiting card that I run an institute which is totally lie and court passed an order to pay her 5000 per month from the date of starting the case. I don't have money and I have appealed it in session court. But my lawyer is forcing upon me to pay the amount. My lawyer is saying that It is a compulsion to pay the amount. Please help me what to do?

Hi, one thing is that it is the duty of the husband to maintain his wife, it is immaterial whether you don't have any work or not........ but if you have any grievance against that order file an appeal for reduction of maintenance but from your narration it is not clear your wife has filed a case in Domestic Violence act or she filed any other case.

Pls keep in mind that you will have to pay maintenance even if you are not earning.at the most you can challenge that order in superior court for reducing the amount.

Your lawyer is bang on mark. Your appeal will not be heard unless you pay the amount ordered by the lower court.
