What will happen if uk husband refuses to pay interim maintenance?


11-Oct-2023 (In Family Law)
I married a uk citizen nri pio husband under HINDU marriage act in 2017 and after 3 months my husband wants divorce based on irretrievable marriage breakdown. I have filed criminal&dv case with interim maintenance&compensation in india.i am jobless now. He doesn't have any property or relatives in india. As my case is of abroad I have a fear of whether he has a chance to escape? What actions can be taken against him if he doesn't comply with indian court orders &who will take action against him? Can he get jail in london where he lives for non payment ? I do have his address of london. How will this international process work?

Dear madam, since you have already file DV and maintenance case against the husband, serve the notice to husband at his london address and submit it in the court. Even after service of notice, if he neglected to attend the court or appoint lawyer then you can Apply to Court to issue warrant against him. I sencerely believe that you will get the justice if you persuade him properly as per law. For more details, contact us for consultation.
