C482 No.815/10 Hon’ble Dharam Veer, J. Sri Lalit Sharma, Adv. for the petitioners. Sri MS Tyagi, Advocate has put in appearance for the respondent. Learned counsel appearing for the respondent while raising a preliminary legal objection on the maintainability of the present C482 petition, submitted that since there is a statutory remedy available to the petitioner to file an appeal before the Sessions Judge against the impugned order passed by the Magistrate, as such this petition at the behest of the petitioner is not maintainable. On a perusal of Section 29 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, it reveals that against the order passed by the Magistrate, statutory remedy of appeal before the Court of Sessions is provided, however the petitioner, instead of availing the appropriate statutory remedy, has directly approached this Court through this C482 petition. As such, this petition is dismissed as not maintainable. The petitioner is relegated to avail the appropriate remedy by way of filing appeal before the court of Sessions, if he so desires.
