Pyla Mutyalamma @ Satyavathi vs Pyla Suri Demudu & Anr on 9 August, 2011
appreciation of evidence recorded in the order granting
maintenance; at the most it could correct a patent error of
jurisdiction. It has been laid down in a series of decisions
10
including Suresh Mondal vs. State of Jharkhand3 that in a
case where the learned Magistrate has granted maintenance
holding that the wife had been neglected and the wife was
entitled to maintenance, the scope of interference by the
revisional court is very limited. The revisional court would
not substitute its own finding and upset the maintenance
order recorded by the Magistrate.
