Domestic violence case rules

Hi,

My wife file DV case against me and my family members. My 1st date is 23rd Jan 2024 and I received notice on 8th Jan 2024. Subject of notice is "directed to file your say on or before 23-01-24". 

Do I need to file reply on 1st date ? Or we can ask next date for file reply ? bcaz my advocate says 1st date is only for our appearance then we can ask for next date to submit our reply. So I have doubt due to notice subject.

She is working women with 75K salary and working as IT engineer and my qualification is also same with 1 Lakh salary. So she want 25K as interim maintenance.

Will court order me to give interim maintenance in this situation?

Put up your appearance on 23.01.2023 and seek adjournment to file your reply with relevant documents through your counsel.

Award / grant of maintenance differs from case to case and there is no thumb rule. However, in the instant case chances to grant maintenance to your wife are bleak.

You first appear along with your advocate on the first date of hearing.

Your advocate will take time to file the say for some other date.

The other things are matter of trial.
