Channamma W/O Doddappa Honamatti v. Hullappa S/O. Basappa Honamatti and Ors.

What is this about?

A husband challenged a Family Court order granting his estranged wife interim maintenance and separate residence, alleging she deserted him. The appellate court found the evidence established she had been married earlier, was minor at that time, and that the husband had failed to maintain her; it upheld the award and dismissed the appeal.
