THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED CRP No. 179 of 2010 Between Baddapu Appala Suri petitioner And Baddapu Manikyam respondent THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED CRP No.179 of 2010 Oral Order : This Civil Revision Petition is directed against the order dated 14-10- 2009 in IA No.425 of 2009 in O.P.No.683 of 2008 on the file of the Court of the Judge, Additional Family Court, Visakhapatnam. It is seen from the records that the respondent is the wife of the revision petitioner and their marriage occurred in the year 1971, as the revision petitioner neglected the respondent-wife she filed maintenance case and an amount of Rs.400/- per month was granted as maintenance. The present I.A. was filed by the respondent-wife seeking interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.3000 per month and also legal expenses, on the ground that the revision petitioner is getting a sum of Rs.20,000/- per month as pension and giving an amount of Rs.400/- towards maintenance. As against the said plea, the revision petitioner did not produce any documentary evidence disproving the averment of the respondent-wife, except stating that he is getting an amount of Rs.9,000/- per month as pension. Since maintenance is a right which accrues to a wife against her husband, the minute the former gets married to the latter and that mere quoting of wrong provision does not disentitle the wife to seek maintenance, the trial Court rightly granted an amount of Rs.2000/- as interim maintenance in view of escalation of prices and cost of living. I therefore do not see any ground to interfere with the impugned order passed by the trial Court. The Revision Petition fails and is dismissed. No costs. _______________ GM, J Kk 29-1-2010 THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED CRP No.66 of 2010 29-1-2010
