After some arguments, counsel submitted he would be satisfied with the opportunity to file an application before the Family Court to bring on record subsequent developments. The petition was dismissed as withdrawn without prejudice to that submission. The Court clarified that notice had not yet been issued to the respondent and that it had made no observations on the merits of the proposed application, which was left to the Family Court to decide in accordance with law.

¶9

By way of this petition, the petitioner assails an order dated 12.01.2026, by which the Family Court has summoned income tax records of the petitioner in proceedings under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.

¶10

Mr. Parmeet Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner, contends that the said evidence has been summoned at a belated stage, when the matter was scheduled for final arguments. He submits that the grievance of the petitioner is that, if the evidence is to be re-opened, he should also be permitted to place on record a fresh affidavit of assets and liabilities, as the petitioner’s liabilities have increased since the last affidavit filed by him.

¶11

After some arguments, Mr. Singh submits that he would be satisfied with the opportunity to file an application before the Family Court to bring on record subsequent developments.
