Counsel for the Petitioner: 1. M V RAJA RAAM Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1. C SINDHU KUMARI 2. PUBLIC PROSECUTOR (AP) The Court made the following ORDERS: 1. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he has no instructions. Learned counsel for respondent No.1 requests that a warrant be issued against the revision petitioner. 2. The proceeding sheet dated 04.07.2025 shows that both the petitioner and respondent No.1 were directed to appear before the court on 21.07.2025. Learned counsel for the petitioner requested that the petitioner be allowed to appear online, as he resides in the U.S.A. Learned counsel for the respondent No.1 also requested the same facility due to being abroad. Consequently, both parties were directed to appear online on 25.07.2025 at 01.00 PM. The 1st respondent appeared physically before this Court on 21.07.2025, but the revision petitioner did not appear. No reason was provided for his non- appearance, and this Court posted the matter under the caption ‘For Dismissal’. 3. Today, when the matter was taken up for hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner stated that he had no instructions. The matter is listed under the 3 caption ‘For Dismissal’. This revision petition challenges the orders passed in FCOP.No.371 of 2013, dated 10.04.2013, where the petitioner herein / respondent in FCOP is directed to pay monthly maintenance of Rs.30,000/- from 26.03.2013 to his minor child until her marriage. It appears that the petitioner is not showing interest in proceeding with the matter. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to see any reason to adjourn the matter, as the case is already listed under the caption ‘For Dismissal’. Since the impugned order directs the petitioner to pay maintenance, the request by the respondent’s counsel to issue a warrant against the petitioner is not considered. In light of the fact that the matter has been pending for more than ten years and the petitioner has not cooperated, either by providing instructions to his counsel or by appearing before the Court, this Court finds it appropriate to dismiss the case for non-prosecution. 4. Accordingly, this Criminal Revision Case is dismissed for non- prosecution. Interim orders, if any, granted earlier shall stand vacated, and all pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed. ________________________ T.
