AWARD

¶21

The wife is the appellant and the husband is the respondent. The appeal is at the instance of the wife, challenging the dismissal of H.M.O.P.No.818 of 2014, on the file of the Family Court, Thiruchirappali, dismissing the divorce petition filed by the wife appellant.

¶22

Today, both the appellant wife and the respondent husband are present. After long discussion and deliberations, taking into account the daughter who was minor at the time of filing of H.M.O.P., has now attained majority and is aged about 22 years and pursuing her final year Engineering degree, and after 2012, even according to the appellant, the husband has not maintained his wife and his daughter, the parties have now amicably decided to part away by mutual consent before the Family Court, Tiruchirappalli. The appellant wife has undertook that she would not claim any amount towards maintenance, either past, present, or in future and she also states that the daughter is also not interested in receiving any money from her father, considering the fact that she has not even seen her father for several years together.

¶23

In the light of the above settlement reached between the parties, this Civil Miscellaneous Appeal is disposed of, giving liberty to the appellant and the respondent to file a petition for divorce under Section 13-B of the Hindu Marriage Act, before the jurisdictional Family Court, Tiruchirappalli.
