IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA C.R. No.159 of 2008 LOCHAN GIRI @ RAM LOCHAN GIRI Versus FULMATI DEVI ----------- 2 11/9/2008 Heard counsel for the petitioner. In the opinion of this Court an amount of Rs. 1,000/- per month by way of maintenance under section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, taking into consideration the liability created by the petitioner of also having two children out of the marriage, both minors, cannot be said to be either excessive or illegal. The plea taken by counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner is helpless old man is actually made out from his conduct and performance. That being so, this Court does not find any merit in this civil revision application and the same is accordingly dismissed with a direction to the petitioner to pay the amount both arrears and current within a period of one month from today, failing which the court below will be at liberty to take coercive steps against the petitioner, in accordance with 2 law, for realization of the amount.
