Can wife with temporary job still claim maintenance? Kerala High Court answers
The Court observed that the primary test for determining maintenance is whether the wife can maintain herself at the same standard of living she enjoyed during her marriage.
The Kerala High Court recently held that a wife's temporary employment and income from the same do not disqualify her from claiming maintenance under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) [Jayaprakash EP v Sheney & anr].
