Munish Verma @ Munish Kumar v. State of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. Home Deptt. Lko and 2 Others
Case brief
What is this about?
Allahabad High Court, Lucknow Bench (Karunesh Singh Pawar, J.), Criminal Revision No.142 of 2025, decided 5.2.2025: revision under Section 19(4) Family Courts Act against interim maintenance orders (Rs.4,000/- p.m. to wife, Rs.2,500/- to minor son) in Section 125 Cr.P.C. Case No.318 of 2022, Family Court Lucknow; contention of indigence (Manrega labourer) rejected on record showing four-wheeler on rent and two shops; income questions left to trial court; revision dismissed.
What did the court decide?
Given that respondent no.2 is the revisionist's legally wedded wife and respondent no.3 his minor son (both undisputed), and the respondents' allegation that the revisionist runs a four-wheeler on rent and has two shops yielding adequate income, the interim maintenance order was rightly passed and there is no illegality in the order impugned.
