ORDER
The respondents herein filed M.C.No.6 of 2007 under the provisions of Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. The petitioner herein is shown as second respondent in Cr.M.P.No.1122 of 2008 filed by the respondents herein. Relief was given in favour of the respondents herein only against the first respondent therein viz., Raju @ Sekar in the said M.C. The learned Judicial Magistrate No.II, Virudhunagar, by order dated 28.11.2012, specifically held that no relief can be given against the petitioner viz., Vivekanandan. Even though Cr.M.P.No.1122 of 2008 https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ was dismissed as against the petitioner herein, Cr.M.P.No.9428 of 2013 came to be filed against the petitioner also for breach of
the said order. When the primary order itself exonerates the present petitioner herein, the question of committing its breach by the petitioner does not arise. Therefore, the impugned summon is quashed insofar as the petitioner is concerned. This Criminal Original Petition is allowed accordingly. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
