THIS REV.PETITION(FAMILY COURT) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 13/02/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss M.N. KRISHNAN, J ----------------------- R.P(F.C)No. 56 OF 2009 --------------------------------- Dated this the 13th day of February, 2009 O R D E R This revision is preferred against the order of the Family Court, Malappuram in M.C. 331/2008. It was an application filed under Section 127 of the Crl.P.C for enhancement of maintenance. The old couple who got separated long back in 1974 continues fighting and ultimately the present petition is for enhancement of the maintenance from Rs. 250/- to Rs. 2,000/- per month. The court considered the matters before it and the opposition of the husband is that the wife is having property. The very production of documents in the form of judgment of the civil court would reveal that all is not well and litigation is going on. Now the husband admittedly is having a monthly pension of Rs. 6,800/-. He had admitted from the box that he has got his own house and 1 ½ acres of paddy field. The court below had directed the husband to pay 10% of his pension namely Rs. 680/- per month as maintenance. In the year 2009 when cost of living R.P.(F.C) No. 56/2009 -2- has gone up to the maximum it cannot be said to be on the higher side. Therefore the order does not suffer from any illegality or irregularity which requires interference. Therefore the R.P(F.C) is dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN,JUDGE vkm
