casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Sukhdev Singh v. Sukhbir Kaur (C.A. No. 002536/2019) The Supreme Court's three-judge bench resolved conflicting decisions on whether spouses in marriages declared void under Section 11 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 can claim maintenance under Sections 24 and 25. The Court held that: (1) a spouse whose marriage is declared void IS entitled to seek permanent alimony under Section 25, with discretionary relief depending on conduct; and (2) interim maintenance under Section 24 may be granted during pending proceedings, even if the marriage appears void. The appeals were remitted to an appropriate bench for decision on merits. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
