Once a judgement is pronounced in the contested case, it will be termed as disposed, thereafter the aggrieved party has no option than to prefer an appeal alone.
if she is preferring appeal against the judgment given in your favor, you may have to challenge her grounds of appeal on the basis of merits in your side as well as the favorable point in the judgment.
She cannot file another maintenance case just because she lost it, you can file a petition before court to reject the claim on the basis of rejudicata.
