IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.6203/2011 Date of decision: 05.10.2011. Lashkar Singh ....................Petitioner v. Balwinderjit Devi and others .....................Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr.Justice Jaswant Singh Present: Mr.Arun Takhi,Advocate for the petitioner. Jaswant Singh.J.(Oral) Petitioner/JD who is husband of decree holder-respondent no.1 and father of decree holder/respondents 2 and 3 (minor children) has filed this revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution praying for setting aside the order dated 18.7.2011 (P6) whereby the learned Executing Court has permitted the stay of the execution proceedings subject to deposit of 75% of the decretal amount of ex parte decree, till the final outcome of the application under Order 9 Rule 13 CPC. It is not disputed that the petitioner is working as a Supervisor in Dubai and a suit under Section 18 of the Hindu Adoption & Maintenance Act,1956 (for short the Act) for grant of maintenance @ 2000/- per month to the wife and two minor children was filed. The same was decreed ex parte vide judgement and decree dated 10.3.2009 whereby a sum of Rs.1500/- per month as maintenance to each of the plaintiffs was awarded. It is submitted that on coming to know of the ex parte decree on receipt of notice in the execution proceedings, an application under Order 9 Rule 13 CPC has been filed and the same is pending hearing. In the execution proceedings the impugned order has been passed. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner/JD (husband and father) at length and perusing the pleadings I find no ground to interfere with the direction given in the impugned order dated 18.7.2011 (P6) whereby the petitioner has been directed to pay 75% arrears of the awarded maintenance . Dismissed. 05.10.2011 (Jaswant Singh) joshi Judge
