N. Sen, Advocate for the petitioner CORAM : ANIL L. PANSARE J .

DATED : 11-12 -202 The challenge is to the interim order dated 13-6-2023 passed by the learned Principal Judge, Family Court, Nagpur in Petition No. E/60/2022. The learned Family Court has granted interim maintenance of Rs. 2,500/- each in favour of respondent no. 1 - wife and respondent no. 2 - minor son.

2.

The contention is that the petitioner is earning Rs. 10,000/- per month. According to the petitioner, his father, who is 62 years old and is patient of Asthama, is required to incur medical expenses to the tune of Rs. 2,500/- per month. 3.

The petitioner is working in a pharmaceutical shop. The bills which the petitioner has produced have been issued by the owner of the shop where the petitioner is working. The Family Court has observed that this point of issuance of bills from the shop where the petitioner is working will have to be gone into minutely. The Family Court then noted that age of the father as noted in medical documents is about 53-54 years.

2 cri. w.p 787.2023.odt The document does not indicate that his father is bedridden. The Family Court was of the view that father must be contributing in the household expenses, which fact will naturally be considered once the evidence is led.

4.

The learned Family Court, keeping in mind, the petitioner's income, day to day needs of the respondents, price of essential commodities and other relevant factors, awarded interim maintenance at the rate of Rs. 2,500/- per month to each respondents. This approach being in tune with settled principles granting interim maintenance, I do not find any reason to interfere with the impugned order in the writ jurisdiction. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed.
