A.Dear Sir,
Since your husband has filed Section 13 of Divorce Case as such you can claim maintenance under Section 24 of Hindu Marriage Act in the pending case. You can file Section 125 of Cr.P.C maintenance case. For filing domestic violence case the limitation is 12 months from the date of separation.

A.Dear Client,

If you have been subjected to domestic violence by your husband or his family members, you can file a complaint under Section 498A of the IPC. It deals with cruelty by a husband or his relatives towards a woman. Domestic violence includes physical, mental, emotional, or economic abuse. You should consult with a lawyer and provide evidence of the abuse to proceed with such a case.

Alimony can be claimed by a spouse during divorce proceedings. Since you mentioned that you are living separately and there are no children involved, alimony may be considered depending on various factors such as financial status of both parties and the circumstances surrounding the separation. Your lawyer can help you assess whether you are eligible for alimony.

Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act deals with divorce. The time it takes to resolve a divorce case can vary significantly depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the court's workload, and the willingness of both parties to cooperate. Divorce cases in India can take several months to years to be finalised.
