In a pending matter where the respondent has already entered appearance, the petitioners want to seek directions from this Court. Why are the petitioners not approaching the court below to seek the same directions, when the respondents have already entered appearance? What is the reason for the petitioners rushing to this Court without and before approaching the court below? No satisfactory answers are forthcoming and we do not in these circumstances find any necessity to admit this Writ Petition and issue any interim directions. 2. This Writ Petition is in these circumstances dismissed. We may hasten to observe that the dismissal of this Writ Petition will not in any way fetter the rights of the petitioners to seek identical relief from the Family Court before which the matter is pending and before which the respondents, it is submitted, have admittedly entered appearance. W.P.(C)No.37398/09 -2- 3. With the above observation, this Writ Petition is dismissed. Hand over copy to the counsel for the petitioners. R.BASANT, JUDGE. M.C.HARI RANI, JUDGE. dsn
