IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA C.R. No.1992 of 2006 AMIT KUMAR SINGH Versus RUBY KUMARI ----------- 2 13.8.2008 Heard Counsel for the petitioner. In the opinion of this Court, the order of the Court below awarding maintenance of Rs. 650/- per month to the wife, opposite party in this case against the assessed income of Rs. 2,000/- per month of the petitioner, cannot be said to be either excessive or illegal as was held by this Court in the case of Rashid Nazfi @ Rashid Najfi Vs. Shahin Gulab reported in 2005 (3) PLJR 741. Counsel for the petitioner, however, is wholly justified that in the special facts and circumstances of this case where the relationship of the husband and wife has been rather shaky for the very beginning inasmuch as they have not lived together even for a period of two weeks, the matrimonial suit should be disposed off on an early date. Considering the fact that the suit is of the year 2003, the Court below is directed to dispose of the suit within a period of one year from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
