Maintenance for daughter under section 125


05-Nov-2023 (In Family Law)
I am not yet divorced but living separately with my daughter. There is no divorce case going on. I had filed a case for maintenance for my daughter in 2016 under section 125. Till now I have not got any interim maintenance too. My daughter is turning 18 in Dec'2019. My husband deliberately delayed the case this long and has mentioned that once daughter turns 18, he would not have to provide any maintenance. Pls guide. Is it that under section 125 my daughter is not eligible for maintenance once she completes 18 years. If so is there any other way under criminal proceedings like 125 where I can claim maintenance till she is married?

Hey,

You need to quickly file a petition for execution. Your partner has to pay the maintainence for your daughter. The concerned court will ask the respondent to pay otherwise he will be punished. Rest can be discussed over the call or a legal meeting.
