    Hi, as per the concept of maintenance, a husband is liable to maintain his wife after divorce untill she remarries. The sec 125 CrPC deals with this. You can present the necessary documents providing that she earns twice as you do but the final discretion shall be of the court only.

    Only issue permanent maintenance can be addressed under the provisions of Section 125 of Code of Criminal Procedure but for divorce the parameters are different. If wife is earning more that has got to be proved and court will decide the issue accordingly. Please give me Rank Five and follow me after reviewing my resume and book a consultation for further discussion and explanation if required.
