    Summary The Bombay High Court set aside the maintenance order of Rs. 80,000 per month granted by the Chief Judicial Magistrate under the Domestic Violence Act, as the petitioners had withdrawn their challenge to the Family Court's earlier maintenance order of Rs. 70,000 per month, making the lower court's reasoning untenable. The court remitted the maintenance application back to the Chief Judicial Magistrate for fresh decision on merits within nine months, while keeping the restraint on dispossessing the respondent from the disputed flat intact. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
