JUDGMENT
This Original Petition has been filed challenging the order
passed by the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court, Chavakkad in
C.M.P No.4318/2018 in M.C.No.250/2018 dated 22.12.2018.
2. The petitioner herein is the husband of the 1 st
respondent. The 2nd respondent is the child born out of the
wedlock of the petitioner and the 1 st respondent. The 1st
respondent preferred M.C.No.250/2018 against the petitioner
herein claiming various reliefs under Section 12 of the Protection
of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (for short 'the DV
Act'). An interim application has also been filed by the 1 st
respondent herein under Section 23 of the DV Act claiming
interim protection order. The said petition was dismissed as per
Ext.P5 order. The said order is under challenge in this Original
Petition.
Having heard both sides, I am of the view that this Original
Petition can be disposed of with a direction to the learned
Magistrate to dispose of the M.C itself as expeditiously as
possible, at any rate, within a period of six months from the date
of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
The Original Petition (Crl.) is disposed of.
