HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD CRIMINAL REVISION No. - 1766 of 2017 Court No. - 85 HON'BLE JAI KRISHNA UPADHYAY, J. 1. This criminal revision has been filed by the revisionist - Ajay Kumar @ Pintu with a prayer to set aside the order dated 22.3.2017 passed by the Principal Judge, Family Court, Deoria in Maintenance Case No. 445 of 2014, under Section 125 Cr.P.C., whereby the trial court while allowing the application filed by the opposite party no. 2, has directed the revisionist to pay Rs. 1,000/- per month to opposite party no.2 (wife) and Rs. 1,000/- per month to the opposite party no.3 (minor son) towards maintenance allowance from the date of filing of the application. The revisionist was also directed to pay arrears of Rs. 1,64,000/-. 2. Heard Shri Shubham Mishra, the learned counsel for the revisionist, Sanjiv Kumar Shukla, learned counsel for opposite party nos.2 and 3 as well as the learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the record. 3. The sole and solitary contention of the learned counsel for the revisionist is that he does not propose to challenge the impugned judgement and order on its merits and only confines his argument that the amount of arrears of maintenance allowance has become very high which the revisionist cannot pay in one stroke, hence he requests the court to order the amount of arrears of maintenance allowance to be deposited in installments. Learned counsel for the opposite party nos. 2 and 3 as well as the learned AGA have no objection to the aforesaid submission. 4. Since the learned counsel for the revisionist has not pressed the revision on merits and confined his argument only to the request for installments to Versus Counsel for Revisionist(s) : Rajesh Dutta Pandey Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A., Jagdish Singh, Sanjeev Kumar Shukla, Yashwant Singh Ajay Kumar @ Pintu .....Revisionist(s) State Of U.P. And 2 Others .....Opposite Party(s) pay the arrears amount, this Court does not propose to evaluate or adjudicate the case on its substantive merits. 5. Considering the request of the learned counsel for the revisionist being bona-fide, this Court provides that the revisionist shall pay the total amount of arrears of monthly maintenance allowance in three equal installments. The first installment shall be paid on 10.12.2026, the second on 10.2.2027 and the third and last installment shall be paid on 10.4.2027. However, he will continously pay the maintenance amount to the opposite party no.2-wife and opposite party no.3-son, as directed by the trial court vide impugned judgment and order. In case of default, the trial court shall proceed against him in accordance with law. 6. With the aforesaid observations, the criminal revision is partly allowed.
