You must know that no altercation or modification can be made in mutual petition draft can be made once first motion is allowed. Therefore, no subsequent demand can be raised as well. Secondly, how could the court hand over the DD before the second motion when it knows that it can not enforce the party to come for second motion. I think that court's order to release DD itself should be scrutinised and if need be we can approach High court. Tell me one thing. Did you have in writing of her demand for maintenance? Matter has to be tackled skilfully else your money gone.
