IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARANCHAL AT NAINITAL Criminal Misc. Application No. 329 of 2002 Devendra Kumar S/o Shri Tansen R/o Nai Basti, Patel Nagar Dehradun …. Applicant Versus 1. State of Uttaranchal 2. Smt. Reetu Bahutwala D/o Shri Akhilesh Kumar R/o Nai Basti, Patel Nagar Dehradun …Opposite Parties Hon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. The present petition has been preferred against the order dated 12.09.2002 passed by Judge (Family Court), Dehradun in Case No. 50 of 2002 Smt. Reetu Vs Devender Kumar awarding the interim maintenance of Rs. 2000/- per month from the date of the application. This court at the time of admission stayed the operation of the order dated 12.09.2002 subject to the condition that the petitioner shall regularly pay an interim maintenance allowance to the tune of Rs. 500/- per month. Today none has appeared on behalf of the opposite party No. 2. Heard Sri L.K. Tiwari, learned counsel for the petitioner and perused the record. Having considered the argument advanced by the learned counsel for the revisionist, I am of the view that the impugned order does not suffer from any illegality. I do not find any abuse of process of court. The petition lacks merit and is liable to be dismissed. The impugned order dated 01.11.2002 stands vacated. (B.C. Kandpal, J.) 13.12.2005 ASWAL
