My wife has filed a Domestic Violence case seeking interim maintenance for herself and our 4-year-old daughter. She earns a good salary, while I’m struggling to make ends meet with a small business due to the economic downturn. We tried mediation but couldn’t reach an agreement, as she wants the house transferred to her name. I filed for the return of my wife and children, but the DVA case keeps getting postponed. Should I continue with this approach? Any advice for navigating this situation?

Indian law recognizes the right to interim maintenance for spouses and children in domestic violence cases, regardless of their earnings. It’s advisable to engage with your wife’s legal counsel to explore a settlement that considers both parties’ financial realities. Focusing on a mutually agreeable solution, especially regarding the house, may help expedite the case and avoid further legal complications.
