THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA AND THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE K.S. APPA RAO F.C.A. Nos. 163 and 266 of 2010 COMMON JUDGMENT: (Per NVR,J) Both these Family Court appeals arise out of the orders dated 29.04.2010 passed by the Judge, Family Court, Secunderabad, in F.C.O.P. No. 142 of 2007. For the sake of convenience, the parties shall be referred to by their marital status. The wife filed F.C.O.P. No. 142 of 2007, under Section 27(1)(d) of the Special Marriage Act, before the Family Court, Secunderabad, seeking dissolution of the marriage between her and the husband, which was held on 04.08.2006. During the pendency of the F.C.O.P., she filed I.A. No. 470 of 2009, seeking grant of permanent alimony of Rs.3.00 crores against the husband. The husband contested the F.C.O.P. The Judge, Family Court, having considered the F.C.O.P. and I.A. together, allowed the F.C.O.P., dissolving the marriage between the parties, by grant of decree of divorce, and further directed the husband to pay a sum of Rs. 50,000/- per month to the wife, towards permanent alimony, on or before 10th of every month, from the date of order. Aggrieved by above order, passed by the Judge, Family Court, in not granting permanent alimony of Rs.3.00 crores and instead directing the husband to pay Rs. 50,000/- per month, the wife filed F.C.A. No. 163 of 2010, whereas the husband filed F.C.A. No. 266 of 2010, contending that the wife is not entitled to get Rs. 50,000/- per month and that the Judge, Family Court, erred in directing him to pay that amount to the wife every month. During the pendency of these appeals, the counsel appearing on behalf of the wife and husband submitted that the parties have settled the matter outside the Court, and they filed Memorandum of Compromise, which is signed by both parties. The wife appeared in person. However, the husband did not appear, and he has filed an affidavit, indicating the reasons for his non-appearance, and prayed that the Memorandum of Compromise, entered into by him with his wife be recorded. The wife, who is present in the Court, agreed for recording the Memorandum of Compromise, which she entered into with her husband. Hence, as agreed to by the wife and the husband, the Memorandum of Compromise, entered into by and between them, is recorded, and the parties shall act in accordance with the terms of the Memorandum of Compromise. Accordingly, the Family Court Appeals are disposed of, by and in terms of the Memorandum of Compromise entered into by the parties, which shall form part of the compromise decree. No order as to costs. __________________ JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA ___________________ JUSTICE K.S. APPA RAO 18th February, 2011 IBL
