Marriage and separate residence are admitted. There is<\/p>\n<p>no specific offer to maintain the wife on condition that she lives<\/p>\n<p>with him. The petitioner was set ex parte and it was accordingly<\/p>\n<p>that the impugned direction was issued to pay maintenance at the<\/p>\n<p>rate of Rs.1,500\/- p.m. He filed an application to set aside the ex<\/p>\n<p>parte order. That was dismissed by the learned Judge of the<\/p>\n<p>Family Court by the impugned order. The petitioner claims to be<\/p>\n<p>aggrieved by the impugned order.
