                        J U D G M E N T

Dated this the 11th day of August, 2021

Kauser Edappagath, J.

This Original Petition has been filed to give a direction to the

Family Court, Chavara to issue the certified copies of the decree

and judgment in OP (Div)No. 1089/2016 without any corrections

or overwriting.

2. The Original petitioner herein obtained a judgment for

dissolution of her marriage with her husband (respondent) from

the court below in OP (Div) No.1089/2016 on 29/7/2019. The

certified copy of the judgment and decree issued to the original

petitioner contained so many mistakes in the cause title. Hence,

she filed an application for correction and it was allowed.

Thereafter, the certified copies of the corrected decree and

judgment were issued to the original petitioner which were

marked as Exts. P5 and P6. A perusal of Exts.P5 and P6 would

show that it contains lot of corrections and overwriting.

According to the petitioner, as she wants to remove the name of

the respondent from the passport, she has to submit the decree

and the judgment before the Embassy at Israel and they insists

for a decree and judgment without corrections or overwriting. It OP(FC) No.387/2021

was in these circumstances, the Original Petition has been filed.

3. We have heard the learned counsel for the original

petitioner. We have perused Exts.P5 and P6. It is true that the

cause title of it contains lots of corrections and overwriting. In

fact, in the original petition filed by the original petitioner, correct

description of the parties were given in the cause title. But, there

was mistake on the part of the court while drafting the decree

and judgment, which was corrected later, on the application filed

by the petitioner. The petitioner has asserted that the judgment

and decree without correction and with correct particulars are

necessary for the presentation in Israel Embassy. Hence, we are

of the view that the prayer sought for is only to be allowed.

In the result, the original petition is allowed. The court

below is directed to issue a fresh certified copy of the decree and

judgment without any corrections or overwriting to the original

petitioner within two weeks.
