THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR ADMISSION, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:25437 CRL.RP No. 1632 of 2024 CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.P.SANDESH ORAL ORDER This matter is listed for admission today i.e., 01.06.2026. 2. Heard the arguments of learned counsel appearing for the revision petitioner. This is the second round of litigation by the wife before the trial Court after the disposal of the case initiated under Section 125 of Cr.P.C., against the husband and the decision of the trial Court has reached the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka in RPFC.No.54/2008. The Appellate Court has also taken note of the observations made by this Court in RPFC.No.54/2008, wherein this Court has come to the conclusion that this is one such case where respondent husband had to leave residential premises because of petitioner-wife's cruel conduct. From the evidence and record, it is clear that the wife used to harass the respondent-husband frequently and due to such behaviour, he left the residential premises. 3. The records also disclose that when the earlier Criminal Misc.No.156/2003 has reached this Court in RPFC.No.54/2008, after the dismissal and confirmation order - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:25437 CRL.RP No. 1632 of 2024 passed by this Court, once again the petitioner-wife initiated the proceedings before the trial Court under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 (for short 'the DV Act') in Criminal Misc.No.950/2020. In the said criminal miscellaneous, the trial Court has also taken note of the fact in paragraph Nos.30 and 31 that petitioner has not made out any changed circumstances. 4. The allegations made in the present petition is already adjudicated by the trial Court as well as the Family Court and the Hon'ble High Court of Karnataka in terms of Exs.R1 to R3, and once again this Court cannot adjudicate the same issue involved under Section 12 of the DV Act. The Appellate Court also while considering in the appeal, has taken note of the same in paragraph No.22 as read above and comes to the conclusion that no ground is made out to invoke the DV Act and the matter is already adjudicated by the trial Court from 2003. When such reasoning is given, I do not find any ground to admit this revision petition and both the trial Court as well as the Appellate Court have taken note of grounds which have been urged and similar grounds have been considered by the - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:25437 CRL.RP No. 1632 of 2024 trial Court in the earlier round of litigation when the petition was filed under 125 of Cr.P.C. Hence, I do not find any ground to admit this revision petition and the revision petition is dismissed. Sd/- (H.P.SANDESH) JUDGE PHM List No.: 1 Sl No.: 18
