CORAM :

ANIL L. PANSARE, J.

DATE :

JANUARY 17, 2025 Heard.

2.

Family Court, Akola has rejected the application to set aside the order of closure of evidence of petitioner-wife who is original respondent and further to permit her to lead evidence, on the ground that when the matter was called, both, the client and the counsel, were absent.

3.

The contention is that if wife is not allowed to lead evidence, she would suffer irreparable loss as will be deprived of right to defend the case.

4.

It appears from the record that because of the fault of petitioner and her counsel, she suffered order of closure of evidence and also rejection of application for leading further evidence. However, her right to defend is on stake. I am informed that the matter is listed for judgment tomorrow.

5.

Issue notice before admission to the respondent, returnable in the next week.

6.

Till then, Petition A-No.344/2021 pending before the Family Court, Akola, shall stand stayed.

7.

The petitioner shall deposit an amount of Rs.10,000/- before this Court. If the amount is not deposited within four working days, the petition shall stand dismissed without further reference to the Court.

8.

All concerned to act on authenticated copy of this order. (Anil L. Pansare, J.) Kahale
