JUDGEMENT
K.KANNAN, J. -
(1.) THE appeal is against a decree of divorce secured on a petition filed
under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act. The Court has acted on the
proof affidavit of chief examination affirming the averments in the
petition. The trial Court has observed that she was examined in Court.
(2.) IT is now contended in appeal by the appellant that the decree was obtained by practice of fraud by using the signatures, which her husband
and father-in-law had secured from her without letting her know the
contents of the same. The alleged fraud cannot be a matter of
adjudication in an appellate forum against the decree. No relief is
possible before this Court.
The appellant will be at liberty to approach the very same court for the review of the judgment on the ground that the decree was secured
through fraud. If such an application is filed, the Court shall serve
notice to the respondent and adjudicate the matter in accordance with law.
(3.) THE appeal is dismissed but with the observation as referred to above.;
