Before the trial court, the revision petitioner wife filed an application in I.A.No.1 of 2025 in OP No. 38 of 2025 seeking for return of jewels and the same was dismissed by the Family Court holding that no document or bills were produced along with invoices in order to prove the jewels are belong to her. But, she is having valid documents to prove the same. Therefore, she prayed to set aside the findings of Family Court. 3.On perusal of records, the fact reveals that before the learned Family Court, inspite of service of notice, the respondent husband has not appeared. Already in the divorce petition also, the husband has not appeared. Therefore, an exparte order of divorce was granted. But, as on date, the return of jewels was not considered.

Furthermore, even before this court, inspite of service of notice, the respondent husband has not appeared and the notice was returned as refused. Therefore, this Court is inclined to set aside the findings rendered in I.A.No.1 of 2025 in O.P.No.38 of 2025 by the Principal Judge, Family Court, Chennai and https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis CRP No. 1602 of 2026 __________ Page3 of 4 the application filed in I.A.No.1 of 2025 is remanded back to the Family Court.
