IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CR. REV. No.1154 of 2008 VIJAY KUMAR VERMA Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ANR 2 20.3.2009 KHAN The petitioner has come against the impugned order passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Buxar in a case under section 125 Cr.P.C. whereby he has been directed to pay an ad interim maintenance of Rs.1500/- per month and Rs.200/- by way of litigation cost. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the history of the case and factual events would show that Opposite party no.2 is not entitled to any maintenance. As the petitioner has come against an ad interim order, this court is not inclined to go into the merit or otherwise of the submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner. However, this court directs the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Buxar to dispose of the proceeding preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Learned court will also try whether any conciliation between the parties is possible or not. While upholding the amount of Rs.200/- which has been awarded by way of litigation cost, the ad interim maintenance amount awarded to the tune of Rs.1500/- per month is reduced to Rs.1250/- per month. With the aforesaid observation, this revision application stands disposed of. Let this order be communicated to the court of Principal Judge, Family Court, Buxar through fax at the cost of the petitioner. (S.P.Singh, J)
