By the order dated 12th September 2007, the petitioner’s application for interim maintenance of Rs.1,50,000/- for herself and Rs.1,00,000/- for minor daughter has been considered and the trial Court has passed an order that in so far as the dates of hearing of the matrimonial petitions are concerned, the respondent/husband shall pay Rs.40,000/- per date of hearing. 2. In so far as interim maintenance for the wife is concerned, it is admitted position that both wife and husband are employed. Husband is - 2 - employed at Singapore, whereas the wife is employed at Abudhabi. She doesn’t dispute that she is earning. However, it is now sought to be stated that her income of 6,000/- dirhams per month is not sufficient for her, in as much as she has to pay rentals and for which a sizeable sum is spent from the salary. 3. All such details are as being stated across the bar, are not placed before the trial Court. At least it does not appear from reading of the impugned order. In such circumstances, and when the child is in a boarding school and being looked after by the parents, interest of justice would be subserved if this writ petition is disposed of by granting opportunity to the wife to apply for maintenance, in case her present income is insufficient and all details in that behalf be placed before the trial Court. The trial Court to consider the said application after hearing both sides and without being influenced by the earlier order. Writ petition is disposed of with above liberty. Sd/- [ S.C.
