THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.6948 of 2010 ORDER: Petitioner approaches this Court with a prayer to set aside the order dated 30.03.2010 in M.C.No.24 of 2009 passed by the IV Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Nellore, and as confirmed by the order 21.06.2010 in Crl.R.P.No.19 of 2010 passed by the Judge, Family Court-cum-VI Additional District & Sessions Judge, Nellore. Though the matter is listed under the caption ‘for orders’, there is no representation on behalf of the petitioner. When the 1st respondent herein approached the trial Court for grant of maintenance in M.C.No.24 of 2009, the learned Magistrate by order dated 30.03.2010 granted monthly maintenance of Rs.5,000/- to the petitioner herein. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred Criminal Revision Petition No.19 of 2010 before the Judge, Family Court-cum-VI Additional District & Sessions Judge, Nellore, who by his order dated 21.06.2010, while confirming the grant of maintenance, held as under: “..the amount awarded at Rs.5000/- per month towards maintenance to the respondent is subject to reduction of Rs.140/- per month awarded by the Civil Court. This is subject to actual payment by the Revision petitioner/husband of this amount awarded by the Civil Court. If he does not pay as ordered by the Civil Court, the entire amount awarded by the learned Magistrate becomes recoverable. The orders as passed are confirmed with the above modification.” Learned counsel for the respondents submitted that the petitioner is already earning a sum of Rs.17,000/- per month as pension and the 1st respondent is not in a position to maintain herself, hence, both the Courts below have given concurrent findings. On perusing the entire material placed on record and taking into consideration the concurrent findings of both the Courts below and the quantum of the maintenance amount granted to the 1st respondent herein, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the impugned orders. Hence, this Criminal Petition is dismissed. Miscellaneous petitions filed in this Criminal Petition, if any, shall stand closed. ____________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated : 23.03.2011 v v
