Respondent Ms.Seema Sarnaik for petitioner Ms.Madhubala for respondent. CORAM : S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 17th January 2008 P.C. . This petition is directed against the order passed by the family court by which the request to issue witness summons to the father in law of the petitioner husband has been granted 2 and the father in law is directed to be summoned as a witness. 2. Another application that was made by the husband was to direct Bank of Baroda to produce the extract of Statement of Account of original respondent wife and that request has also been granted. 3. The petitioner wife is aggrieved by this order and that is how instant petition. 4. After the learned Advocates for both sides have been heard at length. It is agreed between them that order directing issuance of witness summons to the father should stand quashed and set aside and it would not be, therefore, necessary for the father in law, Mr.R.C.Khanna to step into witness box. That part of the order is, therefore, quashed and set aside by consent. 3 5. Insofar as direction to the Bank of Baroda is concerned, my attention is invited to para 71 of the deposition of the wife. Therein an account number is mentioned with regard to Bank of Baroda and the details of the branch are also disclosed. That a suggestion is made to the petitioner wife and she has stated that she is unaware of the existence of the said account. 6. In my view, interest of justice would be subserved if the authorised officer of Personal Banking Branch, Bank of Baroda, Mumbai Samachar Marg Branch is directed to produce the statement of account bearing No.27940400000055 before the family court in pending matrimonial proceedings. However, it is agreed by both sides that the said witness is only for production of this extract and there is no question of any other examination or cross examination of this witness. 4 7. It is also agreed between the parties that subject to the production of the above extract, the respondent before me and the original petitioner, husband, closes his evidence. Insofar as wife is concerned, there are pending applications for issuance of witness summons, they shall be dealt with by the family court on their own merits and in accordance with law, after considering objections of the respondent husband. Petition disposed of in the above terms. No costs. (S.C.Dharmadhikari, J)
