19.11.2024

¶1This appeal has been filed challenging the Order dated

26.09.2024 passed by the learned Single Judge in CONT.CAS (C) 1461/2024, disposing of the said contempt petition filed by the appellant herein with the following directions: - "7. Although the issues raised in the present contempt petition are serious and cannot be brushed aside, however, conducting any further proceedings in the present matter would bring out no purposeful result.

¶8This Court calls upon the learned counsels for the parties to advise their clients to behave like educated persons and ensure that the meetings rights are exercised by the Appellant/father/husband in a proper and congenial atmosphere for the mental and psychological well being of the child.

¶9For now, the present petition is disposed of without prejudice, with the direction that the learned Judge, Family Court may have further interaction with the child, as and when convenient, and properly counsel the parties so as to ensure that the orders of this Court or for that matter the directions of the Family Court are complied with in letter and spirit. This is a digitally signed order. 10. Needless to say that the learned Judge, Family Court shall monitor the outcome of such meetings and may pass appropriate directions so as to ensure compliance of its orders."

¶2As the respondent has neither been proceeded against nor punished for having committed Contempt of Court by the Impugned Order, the present appeal under Section 19 of the Contempt of Courts Act would not be maintainable.

¶3We, therefore, dispose of this appeal, reserving liberty to the appellant to avail of the appropriate remedy in accordance with law. NAVIN CHAWLA, J SHALINDER KAUR, J NOVEMBER 19, 2024/rv/DG Click here to check corrigendum, if any This is a digitally signed order.
