Mr. N.V.Gangal, for the appellant. Mr. S.S.Patwardhan for respondent no.1. CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE, J. DATED : 22/10/2010. PC: 1. Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. This Second Appeal is arising from Hindu Marriage Petition No.74 of 2004 filed by the appellant-husband for divorce. The trial Court had decreed the suit, which decree was set aside by the appellate court and against the order of the appellate court the Second Appeal has been filed by the husband. The appellant and the respondent are present in the court. 2. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that the parties have amicably settled their disputes and he tendered Consent Terms duly signed by him and the parties. In the consent terms they have provided for setting aside the Judgment and order passed by the appellate court. Since the respondent-wife was not represented by any Advocate, in the morning T 2 session, I requested Mr Patwardhan, learned Advocate to represent her in order to find out whether she has understood the consent terms and whether they are acceptable to her. Mr Patwardhan, after going through the consent terms and the other relevant documents and also after talking to the respondent, confirms that the consent terms are acceptable to the respondent. The respondent is a science graduate and understands English very well. She confirms that she has understood the consent terms and she prays for decree in terms of the consent terms. In the circumstances, the consent terms are taken on record and marked "X" for identification. The Second Appeal is disposed of in terms of the consent terms and as a consequence thereof, the judgment and order passed by the appellate court in Regular Civil Appeal No.113 of 2005 is set aside and the Judgment and decree dated 30.5.2005 passed by the Civil Judge (Sr.Dn.) Sindhudurg at Oras in Hindu Marriage Petition No.74 of 2004 (below Exhibit-52) is confirmed. Decree be drawn accordingly. (D.B.Bhosale, J.) 3
