PROCESS OF MAINTENANCE & MEDIATION IN DOWRY CASES

In dowry cases, maintenance and mediation are two important processes within the legal
framework, aimed at providing relief to victims and resolving disputes.

Dowry

Social and Legal Implications: Dowry practices can lead to gender inequality and discrimination, as well as social pressure on families. Legal systems have implemented strict laws to deter dowry demands and protect women from harassment or violence linked to unmet dowry expectations

Dowry

Maintenance

Obligation of Support: Maintenance refers to the financial support one spouse is obligated to provide to the other after separation or divorce. This support is typically given to the spouse who is financially weaker to ensure that they can maintain a similar standard of living post-separation

Maintenance

A woman can file a FIR (First Information Report) at a local police station under
Section 498A IPC. She can also approach a protection officer or women's cell for help in her
area

Wife: A wife (including a divorced wife) can claim maintenance from her husband if she
is unable to maintain herself.
Children: Minor children can claim maintenance from either parent.
Parents: In some cases, elderly parents can claim maintenance from their children

If a spouse fails to pay maintenance, the court may:
Issue a warrant for recovery of the maintenance amount.
Order the attachment of property of the defaulting spouse.
Impose penalties or even order imprisonment in extreme cases

Yes, a working woman can claim maintenance if her income is not sufficient to maintain
the standard of living she was accustomed to during the marriage
