                                     JUDGMENT

[ OP (FC).362/2018, OP (FC).360/2018 ] Dated this the 16th day of February, 2021

A.Muhamed Mustaque, J.

These matters arise from the two interlocutory

applications filed in O.P.No.350 of 2018 and in

O.P.No.1441/2012 on the file of the Family Court,

Ernakulam.

2. I.A.No.644 of 2018 was filed by the mother of

the child seeking permission to take the child to

Ahmedabad and I.A.No.666 of 2018 was filed by the

father seeking direction to restrain the mother from

taking the child to Ahmedabad.

3. I.A.No.644 of 2018 was dismissed and

I.A.No.666 of 2018 was allowed. It is challenging that

order the mother filed these two original petitions.

4. This Court on 06.07.2018 passed the following

order:

"There will be an interim stay against the operation of Ext.P4 (common order passed by Family Court, Ernakulam in I.A.No.644/2018 in O.P.No.1441/2012 and I.A.No.666/2018 in O.P.No.350/2018) dated 27.04.2017 for a

period of one month. However, the petitioner is restrained from taking the minor child Gautham Krishna beyond the territory of the State of Kerala until further orders. It is also made clear that the visitorial rights available to the respondent as per earlier orders will continue."

5. We are of the view that the above order shall

be maintained till the disposal of the original

petition before the Family Court. There is no scope

for varying this order at this distance of time.

With liberty to the petitioner to urge all the

contentions before the Family Court, these original

petitions are disposed of, in the light of the interim

order as above.
