JUDGMENT
By an order dated 27.04.2022 in C.M.P.No.257 of 2021 in M.C.No.64 of
2021, the learned Additional Principal Family Judge, Coimbatore, ordered the
petitioner to pay an interim maintenance of Rs.20,000/- each namely to the first
respondent wife and the second respondent minor daughter, in a total of
Rs.40,000/- per month. The same is questioned in this revision.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the said
amount is exorbitant and it is more than what is necessary to sustain a living
by the respondents and therefore prays that this has to be interfered with, by
this Court.
3. I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the
appellant perused the materials placed on record.
4. I am of the view that, it is only an interim maintenance pending main
maintenance case. It is seen that, both parties have filed the affidavits of assets
and liabilities, as directed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India reported in
Rajnesh Vs. Neha in Crl.A.No.730 of 2020. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
Crl.R.C.No.753 of 2022 and Crl.M.P.No.7669 of 2022
5. In that view of the matter, the trial in the main maintenance case itself
can be completed shortly and therefore without going into further details, this
Court is of the opinion that the same could be gone into detail at the time of
deciding the main maintenance case.
6. I am of the view that, prima facie fixing of interim maintenance
temporarily pending main maintenance petition could not be found fault with.
Therefore, this Criminal Revision is disposed of with the following terms:
(i) The order of the learned Additional Principal Family Judge,
Coimbatore dated 27.04.2022 in C.M.P.No.257 of 2021 in M.C.No.64 of 2021
is upheld.
(ii) The learned Additional Family Judge, Coimbatore is directed to
dispose of the M.C.No.64 of 2021 on merits in accordance with law as
expeditiously as possible, in any event, not later than four months from the date
of receipt of a copy of this order.
