Petition U/S 483 CrPC Seeking Direction To Family Court For Expeditious Disposal Of S. 125 CrPC Plea Is Maintainable: Allahabad HC
Family Law
The Allahabad High Court affirmed the maintainability of a Section 483 CrPC application seeking to expedite the disposal of a Section 125 CrPC petition, clarifying the Family Court's role akin to a magistrate. The AGA's preliminary objection was refuted, citing a 2005 Madhya Pradesh High Court ruling equating family courts' jurisdiction to that of judicial magistrates. \r
