JUDGMENT

(Judgment of the Court was made by HULUVADI G.RAMESH, J.) Heard the learned counsel for the appellant. Though it is submitted by the learned counsel for the appellant/writ petitioner that the first husband of this appellant abandoned her in spite of two offspring, there is nothing on record to prove that she got a divorce or declaration to that effect, but has only attempted to claim the benefit from the second respondent at the verge of his retirement by saying that the second respondent had married her. In the absence of any such material evidence on record, the learned single Judge has disbelieved the case of the appellant/writ petitioner and has declined to entertain the writ petition. In that view of the matter, we do not find any reason to interfere with the order passed by the learned single Judge. Accordingly, the writ appeal https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

is dismissed. However, this will not prevent the appellant from pursuing the remedy before the appropriate civil forum to establish her relationship with the second respondent to claim the benefit, if any new course is available.
