The Allahabad High Court (Lucknow Bench) set aside a magistrate’s order denying a wife access to her husband’s income details, directing reconsideration, and affirming courts can compel disclosure of income and assets in domestic violence proceedings.
The Allahabad High Court held that overstating a husband’s income in maintenance proceedings does not automatically attract perjury. Justice Raj Beer Singh dismissed the plea, noting the issue remains pending before the family court.
