Can I have some information on recovery of arrears of maintenance?

1. Arrears of maintenance are recoverable for a maximum period of three (3) years;


2. Arrears are recoverable if they accrued before a receiving order was made against the defaulter and shall be provable in his bankruptcy;


3. Arrears are recoverable as a debt due from the defaulter's estate if they accrued before the defaulter's death.
