Interim maintenance will be allowed

Dear sir, My question is towards interim maintenance. I have filed my divorce case on may’ 2007 against adultery ground (a video clip with her office colleague) at 1st ADJ Baruckpur court, West Bengal. That time my wife filed an application under section 24 for alimony, the case was rejected on may’2009, because she was a working lady.

Then she files for shifting the court from barrackupur to barasat on April’2010, accordingly case shifted barrackpur to barasat 1st ADJ After few months she again file application under section 24 and that time allow Rs 3500 PM on August 2010, because presently she is not a working lady, changes of circumstances.

But that time I was unable to pay the amount because I have no income. So, they stay my case for further processing. after few months she moves to Calcutta high court for revision/modification of the order, that time H/C grant Rs – 5000 PM and accordingly on August 2012 I pay the said amount till date and it is due. But presently (aug’2014)she files sec – 9 for further alimony and barasat 2nd ADJ grant Rs – 8000 PM now she also moves to High court for further modification.

Sir, in the above circumstances my main case divorce (13, 13A )which have a concrete adultery ground, that is not process & that is standing still. intentionally she tries to delay my case and try to stay. any time she files some new issue and my case delay but as per court direction, I am bound to pay the amount. I hereby request you, please guide me how shall I process & move further. Presently I have no stable income.
