THIS CRIMINAL REVISION PETITION COMING ON FOR
ADMISSION THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
The order sheet reveals that the new counsel for the
petitioner filed the vakalath on 09.02.2022 and took time. On
05.03.2022, the learned counsel for the petitioner was absent.
Noting the same, this Court gave one more opportunity to the
learned counsel for the petitioner to prosecute the matter.
Inspite of an opportunity was given, today also there is no
representation by the learned counsel for the petitioner.
2. On perusal of the material available on record, the
respondent had filed the petition under Section 31 of the
Protection of Women from Domestic Violence, Act 2005 ('the
said Act' for short) to enforce the order passed earlier by the
Trial Court, which was challenged and the appeal was filed and
the same was dismissed. The same was challenged in the
Supreme Court and SLP was also dismissed and thereafter for
execution of the order, directed the petitioner herein to pay an
amount of Rs.61,41,400/- taking cognizance of the complaint
and sought for enforcement of the order invoking Section 31 of
the said Act. The Trial Court passed an order issuing FLW and
the same has been challenged in Crl.A.No.1233/2018 praying to
set aside the order of issuance of FLW and the same is
dismissed. Against that order, the present revision petition is
filed.
3. Inspite of the learned counsel for the petitioner is
given sufficient opportunity, the learned counsel did not pursue
the matter and there is no any interim order passed by this
Court. When this matter is listed several times for admission,
the learned counsel for the petitioner not appeared before the
Court and not pursued the matter and when this matter is not
admitted, the question of considering the revision petition on
merits also does not arise. Considering the factual aspects of
the case and also the material available on record, it is not a
case for even admitting the petition since the matter already
reached highest Court of this country and confirmed the order
and consequently the petition was filed for recovery by issuing
FLW. Hence, the petition is dismissed.
