THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION NO. 7811 OF 2010. O R D E R : This Criminal Petition filed under section 482 of Cr.P.C., seeking to quash the proceedings in MC.No. 284 of 2009 on the file of the Court of Additional Family Court, Nampally, Hyderabad and to stay all further proceedings and to pass such other suitable orders as this Court may deems fit and proper in the circumstances of the case. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Additional Public Prosecutor. The petitioner approached this Court with a prayer to quash MC.No.284 of 2009 on the file of the Court of Additional Family Court, Nampally, Hyderabad. The main grievance of the petitioner is that already the respondent filed DVC before the Court of III-Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad and the same is registered as DVC.No.14 of 2009 in which the respondent claimed maintenance of Rs.10,000/- and suppressing the said fact the present maintenance case is filed, claiming maintenance amount of Rs.10,000/-. Hence, the learned counsel for the petitioner prayed to stay the operation of the impugned order. This Court has perused the record and heard the arguments. After hearing the arguments, this Court is of the view that instead of passing any order as prayed by the petitioner, the present maintenance case, M.C.No.284 of 2009 can be transferred to the Court of III-Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, where the DVC.No.14 of 2009 is pending, so that the learned Magistrate can dispose of both the matters by way of conducting enquiry in both the cases. Accordingly, MC.No.284 of 2009 on the file of the Court of Additional Family Court, Hyderabad is hereby transferred to the Court of III-Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad. The III-Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad is hereby directed to conduct enquiry in both the matters; viz., MC.No.284 of 2009 and DVC.No.14 of 2009 and pass appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above direction, the Criminal Petition is disposed of. _______________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO. 17-08-2010 I s L THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No. 7811 OF 2010 17-08-2010 I s L
