As you have told that you are 40 years old and you have an 8 year old son. You live separately from your husband while your son lives with your husband. Your husband gives you only a little expense which you do not have to pay and threats. I am saying that I will divorce you in such a situation as you are living separatelyYou should have filed a case of Domestic Violence or 125 CrPC against your husband in which you could have taken maintenance and if you are ready to take divorce then you can get a free maintenance amount from your husband which is your right.

Hello, I have seen your query carefully and found that your husband has misguided you that if you file a divorce petition, then in that case, you will not be entitled to get any maintenance. According to law, there is no bar to get maintenance if the wife filed divorce petition. you can file maintenance case as well as divorce petition. if you need any further guidance then please contact me
