Sec 28 primary deals with procedure as to certain sections over which crpc would apply in a qualified manner. In your case since you have mentioned that claims are vague, we would have to see if the content of dv petition shows some specific instances of domestic violence or not. Furthermore other aspects relevant to your case will have to be discussed based on which we can decide whether to file a revision challenging the summoning order or to press for quashing the dv complaint . There are multiple other options depending on the facts and stage of the case. Hence any opinion can be given only after detailed study of the case documents and brief discussion.

If the magistrate has passed an interim order for maintenance against you than you may challenge it in the Session Court within 30 days of the order passed by the Magistrate. However if the wife is earnings and is well qualified, then she cannot claim maintenance from you. If she is non working, then you will have to pay her some maintenance.
