C.O.C.P.No.153 of 2008 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.O.C.P.No.153 of 2008 Date of Decision:-10.9.2009 Smt.Shakuntla Devi ...Petitioner Versus Sumer Singh ...Respondent CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR GARG Present: Mr.R.D.Yadav, Advocate for the petitioner. Rakesh Kumar Garg, J. (Oral): The grievance of the petitioner before this Court is that despite an undertaking given by the respondent, he has not extended any financial help to her at the time of marriage of her daughter Sunita. I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner. Petitioner was married to the respondent in the year 1978. The marriage between the parties could not work and, therefore, the same was dissolved by judgment and decree dated 14.10.1995 passed by Shri Virender Singh, Additional District Judge, Rewari. The contention of learned counsel for the petitioner is that at the time of passing of the aforesaid decree, the respondent had made a joint statement with her that he will extend all financial help to her at the time of marriage of their daughter Sunita and thus he is C.O.C.P.No.153 of 2008 2 liable to be punished for contempt as he has not extended any help. Be that as it may, since on the basis of aforesaid compromise, a decree was passed, petitioner has an effective remedy to execute the same. I find no ground to continue with the present proceedings in which petitioner has failed to serve the respondent for the last about 1½ year. Rule discharged. (Rakesh Kumar Garg) 10.9.2009 Judge AS
