The parties never appeared before the Lok Adalath. It is submitted by the counsel for the respondent that there were other proceedings between the same parties and all those proceedings were disposed of as not pressed. It is evidently clear that due to passage of time parties are not interested in prosecuting the matter. Hence O.P is only to be dismissed. 2. In the result, this Original Petition is dismissed. It is made clear that this judgment will not be a bar for either of the parties to approach before the Family Court seeking appropriate relief. K.PADMANABHAN NAIR Judge mrcs
