Hello
Maintenance asked under 125 in one court while maintenance under DV act in another court? How the girl can ask maintanance under 125 and DV act at same time.
What should i do?
Vijay
dear , the girl can ask for the maintenance under both the law but maintenance shall be grant subject to adjustment
No the maintenance granted in a proceeding u0s 125 does not get adjusted with the amounted pased in a proceeding under DV Act. In other words the husband would have to pay the maintenance as per directions of both cases and without any adjustments.
MAINTAINENCE UNDER SEC.125 OF CRPC AND MAINTAINENCE UNDER PROTECTION OF WOMEN FROM DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ACT , BOTH CAN BE CLAIMED BY WIFE SUBJECT TO THE INCOME OF HUSBAND FROM ALL SOURCES. THERE IS LAW PROVISION FOR THE SAME.PLEASE NOTE.
