THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE B. SESHASAYANA REDDY CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO.1324 of 2009 JUDGMENT:- This Criminal Revision Case is directed against the order, dated 22.01.2009 passed in Crl.M.P.No.416 of 2008 in M.C.No.293 of 2008 on the file of the Family Court, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar, Hyderabad. The respondents 1 to 3 herein are wife and children of the petitioner. They filed M.C.No.293 of 2008 on the file of the Family Court, Ranga Reddy District at L.B.Nagar, Hyderabad, under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure seeking maintenance. They also moved Crl.M.P.No.416 of 2008 seeking interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.5,000/- per month to the wife (1st respondent ) and Rs.3,000/- per month each to the children (2nd and 3rd respondents). The petitioner herein filed a counter resisting the application filed by the wife and the children seeking interim maintenance. The learned Judge of the Family Court, on considering the material brought on record and on hearing the learned counsel appearing for the parties, granted interim maintenance to the wife at the rate of Rs.1,500/- per month and to the children at the rate of Rs.1,000/- per month each from the date of passing of the order i.e., 22.01.2009. Assailing the said order, the husband/petitioner has filed this criminal revision case. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/husband and the learned counsel appearing for the respondents 1 to 3/wife and children. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner/husband submits that the petitioner is a tailor and his earnings do not permit him to spare Rs.1,500/- per month to the wife and Rs.1,000/- per month each to the children. The learned counsel appearing for the respondents 1 to 3/petitioners 1 to 3 submits that the petitioner having developed association with another woman discarded the wife and the children. A further submission has been made that the learned Judge of the Family Court considered the material brought on record and awarded interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.1,500/- per month to the wife and Rs.1,000/- per month each to the children and therefore, the order is not required to be interfered with in this criminal revision case. The marriage between the parties is not in dispute and so also birth of children out of the wedlock. The dispute is only with regard to the quantum of the amount. The learned Judge of the Family Court considered the status of the parties and the earnings of the husband and proceed to allow Rs.1,500/-per month to the wife and Rs.1,000/- per month each to the children. The order passed by the learned Judge of the Family Court, in my considered view, is based on sound reasons and does not warrant interference by this Court in exercise of powers under Sections 397 and 401 of Cr.P.C., Accordingly, the Criminal Revision Case fails and is dismissed at the admission stage. _____________________________ B.
