Procedure to appeal against the maintenance order passed by court
12-Mar-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Dear Sir I and my divorce case is filed in karkardooma family court,new delhi. So far, after 3 counselling sessions, my case has gone through 2 official.court sessions , latest was on 17 feb 2018 on which judge has passed an interim maintenance verdict according to which I need to pay my wife Rs. 50,000 as maintenence. I have my own expenses, short detail of which was attached with the initial petition. My monthly salary is Rs. 44, 000. My question is that is there any way that I can fight against this decision of judge so that I donot need to pay her this huge amount, as I think that since on that day my lawyer didnot appear in the court, otherwise we could have fought for it. Although a written order for the same has not been issued from the court yet. I need to know in what time will i get this written order as I donot trust my lawyer now. He may be hiding it from me as he has not been taking my call or answering my message for past 3-4 days.
If the court has passed an order, it would be written in the Judges file. You can either ask the ahlmed in court to show you the file and along side you can file for certified copy of the order. You can appeal against the order in High Court.

Dear client
Don't worry, you can appeal against the order before the delhi high court. I'm very sure if your income is 44000/- then interim maintenance cannot be 50000/-. However i would be able to give apt advice only upon seeing the documents. Feel free to contact for detailed discussion

If ur lawyer is not responding to your call n msgs then u can simply go to that court by which this interim order of maintenance was passed n there u can ask the court master who sits right down the podium of judge to provide u with the details of the order passed by court on last date. If the court has passed the said order which u apprehend then u need to file an appeal against this order in Delhi High Court n u have to do this work asap so that ur appeal is not barred by Sec 5 of Limitation Act. But before doing this u also need to get certified copy of that interim order passed by court n for that u need to contact ur lawyer through any means since certified coy has to be applied by your lawyer only.
