CORAM:
HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE PRATEEK JALAN
ORDER
% 26.02.2026
1. By way of this petition, the petitioner assails an order dated
12.01.2026, by which the Family Court has summoned income tax records of the petitioner in proceedings under Section 125 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
2. Mr. Parmeet Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner, contends that
the said evidence has been summoned at a belated stage, when the matter was scheduled for final arguments. He submits that the grievance of the petitioner is that, if the evidence is to be re-opened, he should also be permitted to place on record a fresh affidavit of assets and liabilities, as the petitioner’s liabilities have increased since the last affidavit filed by him.
3. After some arguments, Mr. Singh submits that he would be
satisfied with the opportunity to file an application before the Family Court to bring on record subsequent developments.

5. It is made clear that notice has not yet been issued to the
respondent, and this Court has not made any observations on the merits of the proposed application, which is for the Family Court to decide in accordance with law.
6. The petition is disposed of.
