IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERAAD Monday, the 13th day of June, 2011 Present: Hon’ble Sri Justice N. Ravi Shankar Crl.R.C..No. 1235 of 2011 Between: Gajari Narasimha Rao …Petitioner and Gajari Rajani and anaother …Respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N. RAVI SHANKAR CRL.R.C.No. 1235 of 2011 Judgment: Herd the learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. This is a husband’s revision questioning the interim order of maintenance granted by the Family Court-cum-Additional District Judge, Khammam in a maintenance case filed under section 125 Cr.P.C. There is no dispute regarding the relationship between the parties. The Family Court granted interim maintenance of Rs.3,000-00 per month, rejecting the claim of the wife for Rs.15,000-00. The only plea taken by the husband is that he is out of job now and therefore cannot pay the maintenance and the Family Court is therefore not justified in passing interim order of maintenance. There is no force in this contention. Having married, the husband is under an obligation to maintain the wife. The Family Court considered this aspect and granted maintenance, which is reasonable. Hence there is no infirmity or illegality in the impugned order. This revision case is accordingly dismissed at the admission stage. 3. It shall however be open for the petitioner to seek alteration of the order on the pleas taken by him, before the Family court. _____________________ N. RAVI SHANKAR, J. June 13, 2011. *BVS
