Hi experts
guide me again. Op has put forward a recovery memo on the last date in my DV case for arrears of less than 50k. Maintenance is @ 3000per month. Still, due to family circumstances and my low income of 15k I am struggling to pay. During the subsistence of the marriage, I have deposited an amount of 1.5lacs in her name in an FD. Till the time she was with me she had not withdrawn that amount. (That was about 2years ago). She is qualified but not working after marriage. So can I say with proof (I have photocopies of the deposits) that she is having the money and not poor as she claims to be? My lawyer says that we will tell those things later. No idea when. The magistrate has asked me to to give an objection to the recovery memo the op lawyer presented on the last date. What are the other points I can stress on the objection? Can I plead the court to advise her to find out a job as she is a post graduate.? Can I also say that in the days when women are vying for equal rights everywhere, why is it that they become weak and timid and not capable of getting a job the moment a maintenance is filed? Can I protest about the fact that courts are encouraging women to sit idle and fight for the pittance when they can get much more if they take up a job in addition to the pittance? Kindly enlighten me on how I should write the objection so that the recovery memo is dismissed entirely. Next date is given for crossing of the respondent. My Dv case looks like it is coming to an end. I don’t want to clear the arrears till my case is dismissed. But I would keep on paying a little every now and then. She Is born and brought up in the same city so language and travel problem is not there. Can I also suggest where all she can find out jobs? Kindly guide me as I want this petition for recovery to be dismissed. Otherwise she will take steps to force the court to issue NBW.
