Furthermore, the purpose of enacting special law regarding family disputes is advancement of justice and to avoid technicalities which are hindrance in the ultimate justice between the parties. Family Court has to proceed on the premises that every procedure is permissible unless a clear prohibition is found in law. The Court can exercise its own powers to prevent the course of justice being refracted from the path;
The main object of this enactment is for protection and convenience of the weaker and vulnerable segments of the society i.e. women and children; it is due to this reason that “Nikah” is to be registered where the bride is living; if bridegroom fails to pay maintenance, application for securing maintenance is competent before Union Council where the bride resides and in case permission is required to be sought by the bridegroom for contracting second marriage, application has to be submitted to the Chairman Union Council where the wife resides; same like Talaq proceedings are to be carried out in the Union Council where the wife resides and if any offence relating to offences detailed in the Family Courts Act, 1964, its trial has to be conducted by Family Court within the precincts where the wife resides; moreover, if a father intends to get custody of the minor children, he has to initiate proceedings at a place where the children reside. All these go to divulge that the main purpose of the enactment is to accommodate the women and the children, weaker segments of the society, due to this reason under section 14(3) of the Act, 1964 provides that no appeal or revision shall lie against an interim order passed by a Family Court.
