If she is not willing to give divorce then she may contest the divorce case filed by her husband. In the meanwhile she may seek maintenance from her husband to maintain her and the child. If the marriage life is irreparably broke down and she is consent for divorce then she may give consent to in the said case. At the same time she has always reserved her right to seek maintenance from her husband. If you need any further clarification, feel free to contact me.
