as visitation of child is your right, maintainance is her right. she is entitled to maintainance whether or not you file for restitution. however, your liability will be from the date she applies for it. you may not have to pay if you could prove that she left without any rhyme or reason and failed to join you in spite of your repeated request. that is why, restitution of conjugal rights comes as a rescue.
