IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA C.R. No.1074 of 2007 SHAMBHU SAH Versus LILA DEVI ----------- 4. 26.8.2008 Heard counsel for the petitioner. In the opinion of this Court the impugned order fixing maintenance at the rate of Rs. 1000/- per month does not suffer from any illegality much less any jurisdictional error or material irregularity. The court below has considered probably all aspects that could have arisen in a case like this and therefore, one of the submissions of the counsel for the petitioner that the court below did not chose to make genuine effort to make amicable settlement between the parties is only to be noticed for its being rejected. The court has taken into account that it was the allegation of the petitioner that the wife was living in adultery and the moment the allegation of adultery came no respectful woman can be compelled to restore relationship at the cost of facing allegation against her personal character. That being so, the court below had rightly proceeded to decide the case on merit. 2 There being thus no error in the impugned order, this application is dismissed with a direction to the petitioner to pay both arrears and current amount of maintenance within a period of two months from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order.
