Application under Section 319 CrPC decide karte waqt court mainly record par aaye evidence ko dekhti hai. Agar petitioner ne apni side se arguments kar diye hain aur opposite side ne counter file nahi kiya hai, tab bhi court sirf is basis par application allow nahi karti.Magistrate ko satisfy hona zaroori hota hai ki recorded evidence se proposed accused ki involvement prima facie appear ho rahi hai. Agar court ko evidence sufficient nahi lagta, toh application dismiss bhi ki ja sakti hai. Final decision court ke judicial discretion par depend karta hai.

Agar wife bina kisi valid reason ke apna matrimonial home chhod kar apne maayke mein reh rahi hai aur husband ke saath rehne se mana kar rahi hai, toh aise situation mein maintenance ka claim automatically strong nahi hota. Court generally yeh dekhti hai ki wife ne reasonable cause ke bina husband ko chhoda hai ya nahi.Agar aapke paas videos ya other evidence hain jisme woh clearly keh rahi hain ki woh relationship continue nahi karna chahti ya husband ko room mein aane nahi diya, toh yeh evidence court mein relevant ho sakta hai. Aise circumstances mein husband yeh defence le sakta hai ki wife voluntarily alag reh rahi hai, isliye maintenance deny ya reduce kiya ja sakta hai.Aap apni taraf se legal notice bhej kar restitution of conjugal rights (RCR) ka option bhi consider kar sakte hain, jisme wife ko matrimonial home wapas aane ke liye bola jata hai. Agar phir bhi woh wapas nahi aati aur maintenance claim karti hai, toh aap court mein apne evidence ke basis par proper defence le sakte hain.Har case facts par depend karta hai, isliye apne documents aur evidence ke saath kisi advocate se proper legal advice lena beneficial rahega.

Agar first motion mein alimony amount aur settlement terms already decide ho chuki hain aur uske baad bhi opposite party ya unke vakil bina kisi valid reason ke second motion ko delay kar rahe hain, toh aapke vakil court se unnecessary adjournments par cost impose karne ki request kar sakte hain.Family Court generally aise cases mein, jahan matter settlement stage par ho aur phir bhi delay ho raha ho, opposite party ko warning de sakti hai ya cost laga sakti hai kyunki isse court ka time waste hota hai aur dusri party ko unnecessary harassment hoti hai.Aapke advocate court se yeh bhi request kar sakte hain ki second motion ke liye ek final date fix ki jaye aur opposite party ko direction di jaye ki woh us date par appear ho kar settlement terms follow kare. Agar phir bhi delay kiya jata hai, toh court appropriate orders pass kar sakti hai.
