Sounthar, J.), order dated 04.12.2025 in C.R.P.No.2163 of 2025 (connected C.M.P.No.12664 of 2025): Civil Revision Petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India seeking to strike off DVC.No.2 of 2025 (domestic violence complaint) pending before the District Munsif-cum-Judicial Magistrate, Neyveli; dismissed as infructuous after the first respondent withdrew the main domestic violence case upon out-of-court settlement; no order as to costs; no merits adjudicated; no case law cited.
What did the court decide?
The Court recorded that the main domestic violence case had been withdrawn by the first respondent following an out-of-court settlement, that the prayer in the Civil Revision Petition had become infructuous and nothing survived for adjudication, and accordingly dismissed the Civil Revision Petition as infructuous with no order as to costs, closing the connected civil miscellaneous petition.
