Hon'ble Nalin Kumar Srivastava,J.
1. This application under Section 529 B.N.S.S. has been filed with a prayer to direct the Court of Principal Judge, Family Court, Jaunpur to decide the Maintenance Case No.1362 of 2024 (Ragini & Others Vs. Shrawan Kumar) under Section 144 B.N.S.S., P.S. Rampur, District Jaunpur pending before it, expeditiously within a stipulated period.
2. Heard learned counsel for the applicants as well as learned A.G.A. for the State.
3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant is the aggrieved wife of opposite party no.2. For the last about one year, the maintenance case is pending before the court. It is further submitted that the applicant is a poor lady. She is not getting any maintenance. She is suffering mentally and financially both. Hence, a prayer has been made to issue direction to the court concerned for expeditious disposal of the case.
4. I have considered the submissions and perused the record.
5. From the perusal of the order-sheet of the trial court it appears that since the opposite party no.2 did not appear before the court despite notice, the matter was proceeded ex-parte and now it is pending at the stage of ex-parte evidence, which is to be adduced by the applicant herself.
6. Since the evidence has to be adduced by the applicant herself, she is expected to appear before the court concerned for recording her evidence ex-parte and if she cooperates with the trial court, all endeavours shall be made by it to decide the aforesaid case within a period of six months, if there is no legal impediment. It is further
directed that no unnecessary adjournment will be sought/granted in
the matter by/to either of the parties.
7. It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive authorities, counsels, parties to the case, staff etc. are also made bound by this order and it will be their responsibility also to assist the Court in every manner for the expeditious disposal of this case.
8. With the above observations, the application stands disposed of.
