Legal Question in Family Law in India

divorce,mantainance and accomodation

I was subjected to dowry torture

and my husband & his family drove me out from their house.

I filed a FIR under 498A .My

husband file a divorce petition

against me. So I filed a interim

mentainance & mentainance case

against him for last six month

without any result from the court.

After marriage i stayed in my

father in law house and some times with my husband in his

working place in official residence or rented house.

Wheather I can file a

separate petition demanding my

accomadation or share from his

residence ?

Yes you can. You should move separate application in the same proceedings and before the same court under the provisions of D.V.A.
