Domestic Violence – how to know income of father

[Dr. Ashok Dhamija]

It is not clear whose father you are talking about. You have written “his father”? Did you mean “her father”, i.e., your wife’s father?

In any case, you may try to find out his income details from his department. Or, make a guess by finding out income of similarly placed pensioners who retired from similar positions.

However, getting to know her father’s income may not be of much help in a domestic violence case (which appears to be for maintenance). Usually, her own income may be considered by court.
