Dawalkar, Advocates, for the petitioners. Mr. Pawan Pawar, Advocate, for respondent no.1. Respondent no.2 served (Absent). ........................ (2) CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 22ND FEBRUARY 2011 COURT'S ORDER : 1. The petitioners have challenged the order dated 30-6-2010 passed by learned 3rd Joint Civil Judge (Senior Division), Dhule, below Exhibit 83 in Special Civil Suit No. 8 of 2006. 2. By referring to various dictionaries, Adv. Mr. Deshmukh, for the petitioners / defendants, has urged that after death of her husband, respondent no.1, widow, cannot be said to have any "matrimonial dispute" so as to qualify her for exemption from payment of court fees. His contention is this Court has on earlier occasions taken a liberal view without noticing the dictionary meaning and when such liberal view is not warranted by the legislation, it needs re-consideration. 3. Adv. Mr. Pawan Pawar, for respondent no.1, has supported the impugned order. He states that when courts have taken a particular view and view is not in conflict with any legislation, the view needs to be maintained. (3) 4. The words "matrimonial dispute" are looked into by this Court on two occasions and controversy of present type is held to be covered thereunder. Even if one goes by dictionary meaning and consider view stated to be a wider or liberal view, as the later view is not expressly against any legal provision, I am not inclined to accept the contention of Adv. Mr. Deshmukh. 5. In the result, the petition is dismissed. Needless to mention that ad interim relief stands vacated. No costs. ( B.P. DHARMADHIKARI ) JUDGE ......................... bgp/wp10649
