and against the 3rudence and logic. According to the a33ellant, the trial

court did not consider the /aterials on record to enter a inding that he had

enough inco/e to /ae 3ay/ent o such an a/ount and that at the ag end

o the /ain 3roceedings, no such order should ha6e een 3assed.

that the a33ellant got inco/e other than the rent, it /ay e ina33ro3riate

to order hi/ to 3ay `#,!!!$- to the res3ondent e6ery /onth. It /ay e noted

that the a33ellant has a deinite contention that des3ite his eD3ending

/oney to /eet all the do/estic needs, the res3ondent has not een

3ro6iding hi/ ith ood. I so, the a33ellant has to ee out his li6elihood
