Hello sir/madam, My query is regarding matrimonial dispute. I have obtained the interim order on maintenance case which is reduced from 10000 rupees to 5000 rupees in the year 2022. I have obtained a interim order in domestic violence act, stay is provided for 3 & 4 but 1&2 will be considered after the appearance of the respondents in the year 2022. Now I have filed a divorce petition the case is in cross evidence stage, the respondent is seeking the maintenance ordered by the high court. Where she is working and earning a handsome salary. The judge informed that the petitioner has not complied the high court order, so dismissing the case. I don't know what to do now. Because this is the case where I can prove the perjury, cruelty and harassment happened to me. If my divorce case gets dismissed i cannot prove all the necessary things of the respondent. Please guide me what steps can be taken to lead my case. Petitioner in divorce case is husband Respondent is wife

This question pertains to the practical situation.
Any proper answer requires perusal of high court order towards maintenance and orders of the trial court in this regard.
If the interim maintenance order pertains to the orders passed in the divorce case then the petioner would be required to comply with the court order otherwise the trial court may be compelled to dismiss the divorce case for not obeying the court order.
You may be permitted on request to pay partial payment of arrears amount hence you may place a request through your advocate before court to avoid adverse action in your divorce case.
