https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=303207 Under Section 488 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, a husband's second marriage does not by itself amount to neglect or refusal to maintain the first wife. It is only a just ground for her to refuse to live with him, while maintenance remains confined to food, clothing and shelter. On the facts stated, the record showed material that the husband had declined to take the wife back and had otherwise failed in his duty to maintain her, so entitlement to maintenance was sustained on proof of neglect or refusal, not on second marriage alone. en-us Mon, 10 Feb 1958 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 08 Jul 2022 15:21:57 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=303207 Under Section 488 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, a husband's second marriage does not by itself amount to neglect or refusal to maintain the first wife.
