Can wife claim maintenance after marriage being null & void
21-Jan-2023 (In Family Law)
Dear sir my question is that whether wife is entitled to get maintenance after being the marriage null and void?
Once the marriage has been declared as null and void the wife can't claim maintenance. For getting maintenance there must be legal and valid marriage. Law is very clear on this point. Wife is entitled to maintenance no other lady can get maintenance
