Section 125

My spouse filed a case under 125, domestic violence and divorce in year 2014. My Lawyer gave reply against the above mentioned sections. However, spouse have withdrawn the case in year 2016 and also took divorce by showing ex - party. Now again she have filled a case again section 125. So, my question is that, if it's possible to case under this section again ?

Yes. Even after taking divorce, the ex-wife or divorcee wife can seek maintenance under section 125 Cr. P. C if she had no income or source of income to maintain herself and she has not remarried.

But sir she already filled a case once and then withdrawn it. Can she file it again and again ?

Yes absolutely, she can file case AGAIN under sec 125 for maintenance unless she re marries or has employment.
