ANIL KSHETARPAL, J (Oral)

Husband-petitioner is in revision petition against the order

dated 05.07.2016, directing him to start paying maintenance pendente lite @

Rs.8000/- per month along with litigation expenses to the tune of Rs.5500/-

and Rs.600/- travelling expenses to the wife on the date of hearing when her

presence would be required before the Court.

Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that in a

separate proceeding, under Section 125 Cr.P.C., learned Judicial Magistrate

vide order dated 11.01.2016, had determined the maintenance @ Rs.5000/-

per month. He submits that the aforesaid amount has to be adjusted while

making the payment under the impugned order.

A reading of the impugned order shows that no such plea was

raised before the learned District Judge, Family Court, Rohtak. Ordinarily

the maintenance awarded under different provisions have to be adjusted,

however, it always depends upon the order passed by the Court.

Since the petitioner has not drawn the attention of the trial

Court to the order passed under Section 125 Cr.P.C., liberty is granted to the

petitioner to move an appropriate application before the learned District

Judge, Family Court, Rohtak, seeking adjustment.

If such an application is moved by the petitioner, the learned

District Judge would decide the same within two months from today.

The revision petition stands disposed of accordingly.
