HEMANT GUPTA, J. The petitioner has invoked the writ jurisdiction of this Court for initiation of action against respondent No.6 for contracting second marriage with respondent No.7 during the life time of the petitioner, who is his legally wedded wife. It is the case of the petitioner that she has lodged an FIR No.186 dated 08.05.2005 for an offence under Sections 406/498A of the Indian Penal Code and also filed a complaint for an offence under Section 494/109 of the Indian Penal Code in the Court of the Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Patitala. She also filed a petition for dissolution of marriage, which is pending in the Court of the Additional District Judge, Patiala. In view of the pendency of the said cases, it is apparent from the reading of the Regulation CWP NO.7709 of 2008 2 333(C) (c), the matter is subjudice which bars the initiation of action in terms of Regulation 333 of the Army Regulations. Therefore, we do not find any ground to interfere in the writ jurisdiction of this Court at this stage. Dismissed. (HEMANT GUPTA) JUDGE ( MOHINDER PAL ) May 09, 2008 JUDGE jt
