IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA C.R. No.1482 of 2008 SANTOSH KUMAR OJHA Versus SONI DEVI ----------- 2 25.09.2008 Heard counsel for the petitioner. In the opinion of this Court, while there would be no scope for interfering with impugned order granting Rs. 1200/- by way of monthly maintenance and Rs. 200/- by way of cost of litigation per day under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act, pending final disposal of the Matrimonial Case No. 66 of 2006. This Court would be however, impressed from one of the submission of Mr. Uday Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner to the effect that the petitioner has filed this matrimonial case for restitution of conjugal right and the wife-opposite party also in her application under Section 24 of the Act has indicated her willingness that she was ready to live with her husband. In that view of the matter, this Court would direct the Principal Judge, Family Court, Ara to take up the issue of reconciliation immediately on furnishing proof of payment of amount of maintenance as directed in the impugned order and in case the parties agree to re-establish their conjugal relationship, the Court below will pass an appropriate order disposing of the Matrimonial Case No. 66 of 2006 itself. With the aforementioned observations and directions this Civil Revision application is disposed of. Bibhash (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.) - 2 -
