Interim maintenance at high court?

The maintenance case filed u/s 18 HAMA by wife is dismissed by the honourable family court in january, 2012 on the grounds of desertion by wife also on the false allegation that the husband is impotent (medical board certified that husband is potent).

Now ex-wife (since divorce is also granted on cruelty & desertion) appealed in the high court asking for continuation of interim maintenance of Rs.5000 pm, (which I had paid until the disposal of main OP case at the family court) until the disposal of the main case at high court.

I recently appeared for the first time before high court, after I received the notice and asked the judge 2 weeks time to engage an advocate.

---------------------------------------
Facts of the case are as below:
In the cross-examination, she said

(a) Since my husband is impotent, I'm living separately.

(b) I realized that my husband is impotent 4 years after marriage and by that time it was already 20 months, since we have been living separately.

(c) I'm not interested to live with my husband.

(d) Except on the ground that my husband is impotent, there is no other ground for me to live separately from him.

On her application I was sent to medical board, which found me potent, so her allegation proved fault by the medical board.
----------------------------------------
In these circumstances, I have the following questions
-------------------------------------

(1) When the main OP itself is dismissed at the family court on merit, will their claim for interim maintenance be allowed, as the interim was allowed at the family court without ascertaining the full facts earlier and as an interim relief only? Now that, the main OP is dismissed on merits, whatever awarded at the time of IA will no longer have any meaning as it was awarded with partial facts. What to argue at high court so that their interim claim be dismissed?

Appeal filed at high court on a maintenance case u/s 18 hama

Dear Sir,



The maintenance case filed u/s 18 HAMA by wife is dismissed by the honourable family court in january, 2012 on the grounds of desertion by wife also on the false allegation that the husband is impotent (medical board certified that husband is potent).

Now wife appealed in the high court asking for continuation of interim maintenance of Rs.5000 pm, (which I had paid until the disposal of main case at the family court)
until the disposal of the main case at high court.

I recently appeared for the first time before high court, after I received the notice and asked the judge 2 weeks time to engage an advocate.

I have the following questions in this regard


(1) Is it a good idea to represent the case party-in-person? what are the difficulties, I may have to face?

(2) Actually, I know my case very well and I was the one who had written and filed the written arguments in the family court. How differently, the high court lawyer may help me & argue? As far as the content of the case is concerned, I am well aware of the case, what extra benefits I would get by engaging an high court advocate?

(3) Apart from the case content, what extra knowledge is required to argue case on my own?

(4) If I argue myself, is there a possibility that the opposite advocate could exploit my inexperience and lack of legal knowledge?

Please advice and answer my above questions sir.

Regards,

Naresh
