Cuttack, Sep 29: The Orissa High Court has passed an order to conclude hearings of maintenance suits within five dates. Hearing a maintenance petition filed by Priyaranjan Dash, a native of Nayagarh, a division bench led by Justice Biswanath Rath passed the significant order on Wednesday. The order said there are a number of maintenance suits pending with the lower courts and family courts across the state. The hearings of cases lodged under section 125 of CrPC pertaining maintenance to the applicant should be completed within five different dates, it said. Such cases should be disposed off within two months without lingering them  any more for appearance of witnesses. Accordingly, the final judgment should be framed after the fourth hearing.
