Raziya Begum and others; challenge under Articles 226 and 227 to maintenance appellate order dated 06.07.2022 in M.A.G(1)/170 of 2021 passed by Deputy Commissioner, Maintenance and Appellate Tribunal, Tumakur District; Tipaturu Sub Division, Tumakuru; death of contesting respondent and maintenance beneficiary (memo, 14.01.2023); cause of action ceased to survive; relief infructuous; writ petition disposed of without merits adjudication.
What did the court decide?
Since respondent No.1 was both a contesting respondent and the beneficiary of the maintenance order, her demise means the cause of action in the writ petition no longer survives. ¶35
