Once the divorce is taken with alimony means as per law marriage is dissolved. In remarriage again if spouse is intending to seek divorce and if you are interested in reconcile and if she is not interested means then you are liable to pay the maintenance or alimony in divorce case as per law. You can oppose if you have sufficient proof to prove that she is having sufficient means to look after herself even you can produce the documents of her first marriage's alimony amount or any property which is in her name and her failure to maintain the relations for this you can prove under what circumstances she sought her first divorce, by knowing the case number of her first divorce case you can apply and get those documents from the court, in this way your burden to pay the settlement amount can be decreased. Consult any advocate for further guidance.

Yes she can apply for maintenance for herself and kids also as the amount which she may be earning is insufficient to maintain herself and her children in the standard of living which her husband is enjoying, hence file a case for maintenance and also claim interim maintenance. For further details and filing of case you are free to contact me.

Surely she and her 2 children are eligible for maintenance including health and school expenses. She can file it under Cr. P C or under DV Act and file from the court where she is now residing. .

certainly your sister kids are eligible all kinds of maintenance from their father for.ex--- for food, cloths, education, medicine, etc,,,,,,. up to 18 years (Majority). But your sister has to prove she is earning meager amount than the her husband. Then she may get maintenance. other wise no. But children will get from father.
