Father filed petition for maintenance

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 26 February 2018 This query is : Resolved 
Hello Sir/madam,

My father had filed a petition in his city of residence for parental maintenance. Since I was not able to go for few hearing, the judge at the family court issued an interim order of Rs 8000/- per month of maintenance. I filed WP in high court against the interim order as there was no other recourse.Later on, case was shifted to the family court where I reside as per sec 125 crpc. Father has enough resources and property to look after himself and does not need anything. However, he has produced incorrect information and trying to fight the case on unreasonable arguments. Though the proceedings are going on at both the courts ( at very slow pace), what is your advice to me to?? As per 125 crpc if the court case should proceed in the court where son/daughter resides, then in my case the interim order given by the family court from the place where my father resides. Would it be a valid interim order?? as case is now shifted to the court, where I reside.

The court order of the Family Court at one district/city will not become invalid just because the case got transferred to another Family Court in another district/city. The Order of interim maintenance is valid and you will have to pay it till it is set aside by the present Family Court in its final order u/s 125 Cr.P.C. which may take few months to decide. The financial conditions of both parties will be taken in to consideration while deciding the final order for maintenance by the Family Court.

Try to be loyal and faithful to your father who brought you up.

Forget about resourcefulness or property of your father, what is your father's monthly earning, as against your monthly earning.

If your father has filed a petition for maintenance that clearly indicates that you are quite an irresponsible person towards your parents, who brought you up and made you capable to stand in life. Better take proper care of him in his old age. Even if he is resourceful, on his death, he will not take all his belongings with him. That will be yours only. Otherwise, he would not only be entitled to the maintenance, he can also dispose of his property by gift or through will to anyone else.

Better be sensible. Must pay maintenance charges to him.
