THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE B. SESHASAYANA REDDY CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO.1544 OF 2009 ORDER: This Criminal Revision Case is directed against the order dated 24.07.2009 passed in Crl.M.P.No.174 of 2009 in M.C.No.227 of 2009 on the file of the Family Court at Visakhapatnam. The respondent is the wife of the petitioner. She filed M.C.No.227 of 2009 under Section 125 of Cr.P.C. seeking maintenance. She also moved M.P.No.174 of 2009 seeking interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.4,000/-p.m. The petitioner-husband resisted the said application. The learned Judge, Family Court, on considering the material brought on record and on hearing the counsel appearing for the parties, proceeded to grant interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.2,000/-p.m. to the wife, by order dated 24.07.2009. The said order is assailed in this revision. Heard the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and perused the order impugned in the revision. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has been suffering from spondylitis and therefore, most of his earnings are being spent for medical expenses. The relationship between the parties is not in dispute. The petitioner is stated to be Fitter in Military Engineering Services. It is averred by the wife that the petitioner herein is earning Rs.15000/- p.m. Though the husband pleaded that the wife has properties worth of Rs.25,00,000/- including gold ornaments, he did not choose to place any evidence on record. The trial Court considered the material brought on record in a right perspective and provided to grant interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.2,000/-p.m. I do not see any fault in the order passed by the learned Judge, Family Court. Accordingly, the revision petition is dismissed at the stage of admission. _______________________ B. SESHASAYANA REDDY, J. Date: 18-09-2009 Rns
