Maintenance
3 years ago
I am a working mother, with a 9 years old son. My husband is jobless for the past 4 years and never contributes a penny towards the family expenses. I take care of all his expenses. Can I file a case against him seeking maintenance towards the family expenses? I live in Dubai and he lives with me too. Can I file a maintenance case in india while we are living together in Dubai?

A.You can not file the maintenance case in Dubai if you are staying with him in Dubai. Either you come to India and file the maintenance case from here or file in Dubai itself. Frankly speaking, it would be better to have the complete details about the facts of your case than only it will be possible for any advocate to give the proper advice.
You can approach a lawyer over the phone, email, Whatsapp for more details.

A.Hi,
According to Section 125 CrPC you can file a petition for maintenance against your husband in the Indian court. However, it is unlikely to get an order in your favor as your husband does not have sufficient means to support you or your child. If you want to opt for a separation this can be made a ground for the same. If found this helpful do rate us.
