The respondent-husband had filed for divorce, and the High Court had issued certain directions regarding maintenance. The Court found that the appellant-wife had not violated the High Court's orders and set aside the impugned orders. The matter was remitted to the High Court for fresh consideration with due regard to the welfare of the child and applicable law, with a request for expeditious disposal of the pending appeal."
