Ms. Anuja, Where are you from?  Have you withdrawn the divorce case filed by you? Now also you and your husband staying separately? Your job is private job? and he knows all the details of your employment? You have children? pls. clarify all these issues to get fruitful and useful answer.

just because you are working and earning some amount will not relieve your husband completely from paying maintenance to you.the court would look into the fact whether you are earning enough to have a comfortable living and then only decide.another thing is if you have children then he is entitled to pay maintenance to the child inspite of the fact you are working

Quantom of maintenance is decided on many factors like status of living, capability of your husband and the available resources. Its not your husband, but the judge to decide based on the facts and evidences. How you submit before the court, actually matters.

 

Consult with a local & good advocate to help you in this regard.

Dear Anuja,

The fact is that you have filed a case of Divorce against your husband ( ground is not disclosed by you in your averments) and this case is also not withdrawn by you. Only in the councelling sessions it has been decided that your husband got agreed to live with you and till now no court order have been pased in this relation.

Now please understand that even if you are earning and capable of maintaining your livilihood but is your living status is same as of the after the time of your marriage and are you enjoying the same status of social and economic standards of living as you were enjoying with your husband? if not then certqinly he will be liable to pay you a handsom maintenance for the differance of the living standard.

You are dvised not to withdraw your divorce case at any ground other wise you will suffer and also after getting settled for some maintenance amount keepon this revived and reviewd after a period of time on the grounds of dearness.
