No.01 of 2019 COMMON ORDER: This Criminal Revision Case has been filed by the petitioner seeking to set-aside the impugned Non-Bailable Warrant, issued against the petitioner herein vide order dated 18.01.2018 in Crl.M.P.No.1164 of 2016 in M.C.No.248 of 2014 on the file of the learned IV Additional District and Sessions Judge- cum-Family Court, Vijayawada. 2. Heard Sri Kolusu Ravi Kiran Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, Ms.B. Tapaswi, learned legal aid counsel for the respondent Nos.1 and 2 and Ms.K.Priyanka Lakshmi, learned Assistant Public Prosecutor representing on behalf of the State is in attendance. 3. This petition is filed seeking condone delay of 574 days in preferring this revision against the impugned order of maintenance granted to respondent Nos. 1 and 2, who are the wife and minor son of the petitioner, on the file of the Family Court-cum-IV Additional District and Sessions Judge, Vijayawada, dated 13.10.2016. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner, being the husband, had handed over the case file to his advocate before the Trial Court with instructions to entrust the matter to a High Court advocate. However, the 4 Dr. VJP, J Crl.R.C.No.914 of 2019 Dated 10.04.2026 case bundle was misplaced in the advocate’s office. It is further submitted that the bundle was traced only recently, and due to the said reason, the delay occurred in filing the present petition. 5. Having heard the submissions and upon perusal of the material on record, it is noted that the petitioner, who is the husband of respondent No. 1 in the maintenance case, remained ex parte. 6. The learned Judge, upon appreciation of the evidence of PW1 (the wife), coupled with documents Exs. P1 to P5, granted maintenance at the rate of Rs. 15,000/- per month to the wife and Rs. 10,000/- per month to the minor son, apart from Rs. 25,000/- per annum towards the educational expenses of the minor son, from the date of application. 7. Nothing has been placed before this Court to substantiate the petitioner’s contention for condone delay, except a vague plea that the case bundle was misplaced in the office of the learned counsel before the Trial Court. The affidavit filed by the petitioner further indicates that it is not his case that he was unaware of the proceedings in M.C. No. 248 of 2014. Despite receipt of notice, he did not choose to appear before the Trial Court to place his contentions on record. 8. In such circumstances, viewed from any angle, this Court finds no reason to condone the delay or to interfere with the impugned order. The impugned order is a well-reasoned one. 5 Dr. VJP, J Crl.R.C.No.914 of 2019 Dated 10.04.2026 9. Accordingly, the petition is dismissed, and consequently, the revision is also dismissed. Consequently, miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall stand closed. __________________________________________ DR. JUSTICE VENKATA JYOTHIRMAI PRATAPA Date: 10.04.2026.
