The order was passed ex parte against the petitioner and the petitioner was directed to pay an amount of Rs. 1,500/ - per month to respondent No. 1 wife and an amount of Rs. 800/ - per month to minor daughter. That order was challenged by way of filing criminal revision which was registered as Criminal Revision No. 39/14. But the same was also dismissed vide order dated 23.7.2014. Being aggrieved by the order passed by the revisional Court, this petition under section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure has been preferred.

(3.) IT is submitted by learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner that revisional Court in its order dated 23.7.2014, in para 10, has observed that no notice was served upon the petitioner.
