S.Satheesh Kumar v. V.Archana

ORDER When the matter is taken up for hearing today, the learned Senior Counsel appearing for the revision petitioners seeks permission of this Court to withdraw this petition and he has also made an endorsement to that effect. However, the learned Senior Counsel appearing for the revision petitioners would submit that the appearance of the petitioners may be dispensed with.

¶2In the result, this Civil Revision Petition is dismissed as withdrawn. However, the proceedings under the Domestic Violence Act are civil in nature. Hence, the petitioners herein can only be considered as respondents and not accused in the D.V. complaint and there is no need or necessity for them to appear for each and every hearing before the concerned Court. Hence, the learned Judicial Magistrate is directed not to insist the appearance of the petitioners/respondents on all the hearings, but the learned Magistrate is at liberty to direct the petitioners/respondents to appear if their appearance is necessary. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed. No costs.
