P1 TRUE PHOTOCOPY OF THE ORDER IN IA 2142011 IN OP 1870/2009 DT. 2.8.2011 OF THE FAMILY COURT, ERNAKULAM /TRUE COPY/ Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan & C.T.Ravikumar, JJ. ------------------------------------------------- O.P.(FC) No.3231 of 2011 R ------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 14th day of November, 2011 JUDGMENT Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, J. Respondent filed an application for divorce in 2009. In 2011, petitioner-wife filed an interlocutory application for interim maintenance. On a query by us, we are told by the learned counsel for the petitioner-wife that the daughter, who is studying for B.D.S., is being provided support by her father. The elder daughter is married. With all these, the impugned order was passed fixing interim maintenance at the rate of `.3,000/- per month. We do not find any infirmity in that order warranting visitorial jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution. 2. However, we leave it open to the petitioner to move the Family Court for any further modification of Exhibit P1 OPFC 3231/2011 2 impugned order with passage of time. On facts, we also feel that this is a fit case where the Family Court can take recourse to ADR to resolve this litigation. Ordered accordingly.
