THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL PETITION No.8734 of 2010 ORDER: This criminal petition is filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. by the petitioner – Venkatachalapathi with a prayer to set aside the order passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Hindupur, Ananthapur District. Initially, the trial Court directed the petitioner-husband to pay a sum of Rs.500/- per month by 10th of every succeeding month to the respondent-wife towards maintenance. Questioning the quantum of maintenance, he preferred a revision. The appellate Court after appreciating the material on record, dismissed the revision by confirming the orders passed by the learned Magistrate. Aggrieved over the same, the petitioner filed the present petition. Heard both sides. In view of the concurrent findings of the courts below and in view of the fact that the amount ordered by the trial Court is also only Rs.500/- which is very meager, this Court is of the view that there is no need to interfere with the order impugned and the present petition is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the criminal petition is dismissed as devoid of merits. __________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Date:25.01.2011 Rns
