HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH C.R.P.NO.972 OF 2009 Dt.23.12.2010 Between: Panduri Ravi Kumar ..Petitioner And Panduri Varalakshmi ..Respondent HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH C.R.P.NO.972 OF 2009 ORDER: Heard both the counsel. Petitioner is the husband of the respondent. Petitioner filed H.M.O.P.No.43 of 2005 on the file of the Principal Senior Civil Judge, Anakapalle for divorce. In the said O.P., the respondent filed I.A.No.729 of 2006 seeking interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.1500/- per month and to pay Rs.5000/- for legal expenses and Rs.200/- for travelling expenses alleging that the petitioner is getting Rs.5,000/- per month as Cable Operator besides that he is doing money lending business and having Ac.4.00 landed property in Agraharam Village. The said averments were denied in the counter stating that he is getting only Rs.1500/- per month and he does not have money lending business or land. Considering the said contentions, the court below awarded interim maintenance at Rs.1500/- per month and Rs.2000/- towards legal expenses by order dated 14.2.2007 in I.A.No.729 of 2006. It is stated that the respondent wife is totally depending upon the petitioner and she do not have any other means to maintain herself and the petitioner is getting Rs.5,000/- per month and the granting of maintenance of Rs.1500/- per month in M.C.No.14 of 2005 was questioned in a revision and this Court stayed the said order and therefore there is no other means to maintain herself. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I am of the view that the granting of maintenance amount at the rate of Rs.1500/- per month is not excessive or arbitrary. I do not see any ground to interfere with the order impugned. The civil revision petition is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ________________ V.ESWARAIAH, J. 23.12.2010 kpr
